The Lunar and Planetary Science Conference announced on 2015-03-16 that a 198 km wide crater has been found on the moon using the GRAIL spacecraft that uses gravitational field mapping. This enabled the discovery of craters below the surface. It's been named the Earhart crater. Nice gravitational photos can be found in the links.

Earth females were complaining that all the other craters were named after earth men. Meanwhile, extra-terrestrials are organizing protests and riots on Earth because we named everything after Earthlings.
