Mohorovičić (Moon)

Andrija; Croatian geophysicist (1857-1936). (Spelling changed from Mohoróvičic.)

Mohorovičić is a lunar impact crater on the far side. It lies to the southwest of the larger crater Doppler and the huge walled plain Korolev. To the southwest is a small lunar mare that has been named Lacus Oblivionis. Due south of it is an unnamed mountain that formed during the impact that created the South Pole-Aitken Basin. (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.
