	Gassendi (crater) - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Gassendi is a large lunar crater feature located at the northern edge of Mare Humorum.
		A smaller crater 'Gassendi A' is intruding into the northern rim, and joins a rough uplift at the northwest part of the floor.
		In the southern part of the crater floor is a semi-circular ridge-like formation that is concentric with the outer rim.

		Gassendi is the large crater at the north edge of Mare Humorum.
		The smaller crater along the north wall is also called Gassendi, Gassendi A. It is 24 miles across and 8500 feet deep.
		It is one of the most active craters for transient lunar phenomena, and I've seen plenty of that in Gassendi.
