What Wikipedia says

Gassendi is a large lunar impact crater feature located at the northern edge of Mare Humorum. The crater was named after French astronomer Pierre Gassendi by the IAU in 1935. T. W. Webb called this "a conspicuous walled plain", but noted "that its proportions vary considerably according to libration."
