| Eponym: | Lyubov Popova |
Popova is a crater on Mercury. Its name was adopted by the International Astronomical Union in 2012, after the Russian painter and designer Lyubov Popova.[1]
The crater has a central peak[2] and has a bright ray system that overlies surrounding features and is thus young.
The peak-ring basin Chekhov is to the southeast of Popova, and the flat-floored Unkei is to the northeast.
