Named after Gabrielle Renaudot - French astronomer (1877-1962).

Renaudot Crater is an impact crater in the Casius quadrangle on Mars at 42.4° N and 297.4° W. and is 64.0 km in diameter. Along its wall are evidence of old glaciers. The floor bears a field of dunes. (wikipedia entry)

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On Mars large craters are named after deceased scientists, writers and others who have contributed to the lore of Mars. Small creaters (less than 60km) are named after small towns and villages.
