Capuanus D (Moon)

Satellite Feature of Capuanus

Named after Francesco Capuano Di Manfredonia Capuanus - Italian astronomer (c. 1400-unkn).

Capuanus is a lunar crater that lies along the southern edge of the Palus Epidemiarum. The outer rim is eroded and indented by lesser crater impacts, with notches in the north, west, and southern parts of the rim. The interior floor has been resurfaced by basaltic lava, which is connected to the surrounding lunar mare by a narrow, crater-formed gap in the northern rim. The floor is particularly notable for the hosting a number of domes, which are believed to have formed through volcanic activity. (wikipedia entry)
