Cayley is a small lunar impact crater that is located in a basaltic-lava-flooded region to the west of Mare Tranquillitatis. It lies to the northwest of the smaller De Morgan and the larger D'Arrest craters. West and slightly north of the crater is Whewell crater, a crater of about the same dimensions. To the north is a linear rille designated Rima Ariadaeus, which follows a course to the east-southeast.

This is a circular, bowl-shaped formation with a small interior floor at the mid-point. (Small being relative to the overall diameter, as it occupies about one-fourth the total cross-section.) The sloping interior walls are relatively light in hue, having a higher albedo as the surrounding terrain. However it is not nearly as bright as the slightly larger Dionysius crater to the east-southeast, and lacks a ray system.

The terrain surrounding the crater is somewhat similar to the lunar mares, but has a slightly higher albedo and is overlapped at the eastern edge by the Mare Tranquillitatis. Lunar scientists suspect that this plain may have resulted from deposits of ejecta from the formation of an impact basin. (The most likely source is the Mare Imbrium impact basin to the northwest.)

Sir. George Cayley Dec. 27 1773 - Dec. 15 1857 Was a pioneer of aeronautics.

A wealthy landowner, Cayley is considered the father of aerial navigation and a pioneer in the science of aerodynamics. He established the scientific principles for heavier-than-air flight and used glider models for his research. He was the first to identify the four forces of flight--thrust, lift, drag, and weight—and to describe the relationship each had with the other. He designed the first actual model of an airplane and also diagrammed the elements of vertical flight. His major publication, "On Aerial Navigation," described the theoretical problems of flight. He suggested using multiple wings—biplanes or triplanes—to produce maximum lift with minimum structural weight. He recognized that curved surfaces (cambered airfoils) provided greater lift than flat surfaces.

Cayley's first full-size model in 1849 was large enough to support the weight of a boy. A larger model, built and flown in 1853, carried Cayley's coachman as a passenger. His work influenced many others, including William Samuel Henson, who designed the Aerial Steam Carriage that was based on Cayley's theories.

As well as his work in aeronautics, Cayley invented railroad and agricultural equipment. He patented a tractor that was called the "universal railway" in 1825 that became the Caterpillar tractor.

Sir George Cayley has been called the inventor of the airplane, although I prefer to think of him as its 'Grandfather.' Cayley made extensive anatomical and functional studies of birds and bird flight. From measurements of bird and human muscle masses, Cayley determined that it was impossible for humans to strap on a pair of wings and take to the air. This led him to propose a fixed-wing airplane with a separate system for thrust. He developed three gliders that embodied these principles. The gliders were successful in carrying people over a short distance -- the first successful modern airplane configuration. His work was highly influential in the eventual development of the airplane.

Arguably the most important paper in the invention of the airplane is a triple paper On Aerial Navigation by Sir George Cayley. The article appeared in three issues of Nicholson's Journal. In this paper, Cayley argues against the ornithopter model and outlines a fixed-wing aircraft that incorporates a a separate system for propulsion and a tail to assist in the control of the airplane. Both ideas were crucial breakthroughs necessary to break out of the ornithopter tradition.
