Kapteyn (crater)

Kapetyn is a lunar impact crater that is near the eastern limb of the Moon, to the west of the crater La Pérouse. West of Kapetyn is the slightly smaller Barkla, and farther to the west-northwest is the prominent Langrenus....

La Pérouse (crater)

La Pérouse is a lunar impact crater that is located near the eastern limb of the Moon. It lies northwest of the larger crater Ansgarius, and to the east of Kapteyn. This crater appears foreshortened due to its location, but the rim is nearly circular when viewed from orbit.The rim of La Pérouse is...
