Doc and Clara looking at the Moon and the stars through Clara's now-repaired telescope.
Copernicus was a crater on the Moon, named after the famed scientist Nicolaus Copernicus — whose name Dr. Emmett Brown gave to his 1955 dog.
History[]
When Doc and Clara Clayton were looking at the Moon and the stars with her telescope on September 5, 1885, Clara pointed Copernicus out to Doc and mentioned that as a child, she had called the crater Little Sunshine before finding out later it already had a name. Doc agreed with Clara that Copernicus did look like a little sun.
