Borman (crater)
Borman is a lunar impact crater that is located in the southern hemisphere on the far side of the Moon. It lies across the southeast section of the mountainous inner ring, within the walled basin named Apollo.
The rim of Borman remains sharp-edged, although a smaller crater lies across its northwestern rim. The interior is rough but relatively flat. Borman L is an older and much more worn crater that is attached to the southern rim of Borman.
Borman crater is named after the American astronaut Frank Borman, commander of the Apollo 8 mission in 1968, which was the first manned mission to the Moon. Two nearby craters are named after the other two crew members, William Anders and Jim Lovell.Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Borman.
