Crater on the Moon
Feature on the moon
Slava is a tiny crater on the Moon. It is near the site where Soviet lunar rover Lunokhod 1 landed in November 1970, in the Mare Imbrium region. Its diameter is 0.1 km.[1] The name Slava does not refer to a specific person; it is a Slavic male name, a diminutive form of Yaroslav and other names.[1]
