Jenkins (Moon)

Named after Louise Freeland Jenkins - American astronomer (1888-1970).

Jenkins is a lunar crater that lies along the equator , near the eastern limb. It is attached to the eastern rim of the slightly larger crater Schubert X, intruding somewhat into the interior. The crater Nobili is likewise attached to the western rim of Schubert X and intrudes slightly into the interior on that side. The three craters form a linear chain along the equator.
