Maksutov is an 88.962 km crater formed during the Upper Imbrian[1] period on the near side in the Southern hemisphere. It is located in in the Oppenheimer (LAC-120) and LQ-29 quads. It's named for Dmitrij Dmitrievich Maksutov, Soviet optician (1896-1964). It is cataloged in the Morphological Catalogue of the Craters of the Moon as SAI 383.
Position
- The Unified Lunar Control Network 2005[2] places its center at 40.7333705571 S 191.3913470841.
- Stratigraphy of Lunar Craters (2009) places its center at 40.5 S -168.7.
- The Morphological Catalogue of the Craters of the Moon (1987) places its center at 40.8 S 191.3.
All of the above positions are in Mean Earth/Polar Axis coordinates.
