Etymologically, the entry records: From Nemo + crater. Named after the fictional character Captain Nemo, created by Jules Verne, most famously featured in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1870). Root origin matters for spelling because borrowed morphemes (Greek, Latin, Old French, Old English) carry their source-language orthographic conventions into modern English, which is why historical etymology is often the cleanest predictor of whether a cluster like "-ough", "-eau", or "-tion" will appear. For readers arriving here from a spelling check, the authoritative guidance is: the correct English form is Nemo Crater, spelled N-E-M-O- -C-R-A-T-E-R, and any other sequence of those letters, regardless of how natural it feels, is a misspelling in standard orthography.
