Bosch is a small lunar impact crater near the North Pole of the Moon.[1] It is located just to the northeast of the Rozhdestvenskiy crater.
This crater was previously unnamed until it was given a name by the IAU along with 18 other craters on January 22, 2009.[2] It was named after German chemist and Nobel Prize winner Carl Bosch (c. 1874 – c. 1940).
