Wargo (crater)

Wargo is a lunar crater on the far side of the Moon. It is located to the south of Blazhko, and to the west of Joule.

Wargo is a fresh crater with a prominent ray system. It lies on the western rim of Joule T, a satellite crater of Joule, and was formed by an asteroid about a thousand meters across (several thousand feet) impacting the ridge of Joule T at 3 to 12 mi/s. The crater is 13.9 km in diameter and approximately 3000 ft in depth.

The crater was unnamed until its name was approved in 2017 by the IAU. It is named after former NASA Chief Exploration Scientist Michael J. Wargo.
