Evdokimov (Moon)

Named after Nikolaj N. Evdokimov - Soviet astronomer (1868-1940).

Evdokimov is a lunar crater on the far side. It lies to the east of the crater Evershed, and west-southwest of Gadomski. This is a worn and eroded feature with a somewhat indistinct outer rim that is little more than a slight ridge in the surface. The rim is better formed along the western and eastern sides.

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On the Moon they are named after deceased scientists, polar explorers, astronauts or cosmonauts.
