Censorinus (crater)
Censorinus is a small lunar impact crater located on a rise to the southeast of the Mare Tranquillitatis. British astronomer T. W. Webb called this "a minute crater, with its vicinity is very brilliant" during full Moon, while Patrick Moore noted this is "one of the brightest points on the whole Moon, and is always conspicuous, particularly under high illumination". To the northwest is the crater Maskelyne.
