Quetelet (Moon)

Named after Lambert Aldophe Jacques Quetelet - Belgian statistician, astronomer (1796-1874).

Quetelet is a lunar crater that lies in the Moon's northern hemisphere, on the far side from the Earth. It lies to the southeast of the crater Schlesinger, and to the east of Von Zeipel. To the east is Perrine. As is the case with many of the craters , this feature has become worn and eroded by subsequent impacts. (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.
