Miller (Moon)

Named after William Allen Miller - British chemist (1817-1870).

Miller is a lunar impact crater that lies amidst the rugged terrain in the southern part. It is attached to the northern rim of the smaller crater Nasireddin, and the outer rampart of the latter reaches almost to the central peak formation at the midpoint 's interior floor. Together with Huggins to the southwest and Orontius to the south-southwest, this foursome forms a chain of craters forming an arc that curves towards the north. The northwest rim in turn is attached to the satellite crater Miller C, forming the end of the arc. (wikipedia entry)

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.
