Satellite Feature of Apianus

Named after Bienewitz, Peter Apianus - German mathematician, astronomer (1495-1552).

Apianus is a lunar impact crater on the rugged south-central highlands. It is located to the northeast of the crater Aliacensis, and to the northwest of Poisson. The worn crater Krusenstern is attached to the west-northwestern rim. The outer wall of the crater has been worn and eroded by subsequent impacts, and a pair of small craterlets overlay the rim to the southeast and northeast. (wikipedia entry)
