Birkhoff R (Moon)

Satellite Feature of Birkhoff

Named after George David Birkhoff - American mathematician (1884-1944).

Birkhoff is a giant lunar walled plain on the far side , in the northern hemisphere. This formation is an ancient impact site that has been heavily eroded, and the surface reshaped by multiple craters in the interior and along the rim. The outer wall is bordered by the craters Carnot to the south, Rowland along the west rim, and Stebbins to the north. Just to the northeast is van't Hoff. (wikipedia entry)
