Lawrence is a lunar crater that is located on a section of terrain to the east of Mare Tranquillitatis and northwest of Mare Fecunditatis. To the southeast is the larger crater Taruntius. The rille designated Rima Cauchy crosses the eastern part of the Mare Tranquillitatis and reaches as far as the northern rim of Lawrence. This crater has been flooded by lava, leaving only a shallow ring of a rim projecting above the surface. The rim has breaks in the north and southwest, with the most intact portion in the east. This crater was previously designated Taruntius M before being named by the IAU. ==References== * * * * * * * * * * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawrence (crater)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
