Bailly M (Moon)

Satellite Feature of Bailly

Named after Jean Sylvain Bailly - French astronomer (1736-1793).

Bailly is a lunar impact crater that is located near the south-west limb. The oblique viewing angle gives the crater a foreshortened appearance, and the location near the limb can limit visibility due to libration. The most favorable time for viewing this feature is near the full moon when the terminator is crossing the crater wall. This is the largest crater on the near side. (wikipedia entry)
