Berzelius (Moon)

Named after Jöns Jacob Berzelius - Swedish chemist (1779-1848).

Berzelius is a lunar crater located in the northeast part 's near side. It lies to the southeast of the crater Franklin, and to the northwest of Geminus. Berzelius is a low, eroded formation with a fairly level interior floor and a small, ridge-like rim. There are several tiny craterlets along the rim, and the wall is nearly gone along the southern side – it consists of little more than a low, wide ridge. (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.
