Boguslawsky (Moon)

Named after Palm Heinrich Ludwig von Boguslawsky - German astronomer (1789-1851).

Boguslawsky is a lunar impact crater that is located near the southern lunar limb. It lies to the northwest of the slightly larger crater Demonax, and southwest of the concentric crater Boussingault. Due to its location, this crater appears very oblong in shape because of foreshortening. The floor of this crater is flooded and featureless. (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.
