	Mare Crisium (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Mare Crisium, also known as the "Sea of Crisis", is located in the Crisium basin, just northeast of Mare Tranquillitatis.
		This basin is of the Nectarian epoch, while the mare material is of the Upper Imbrian epoch.
		This mare is 376 miles in diameter, with many notable features in and around it.

	Mare Crisium (Sea of Crises)
		Mare Crisium is a relatively young mare region, but older than the two most recently-formed maria, Imbrium and Orientale.
		Mare Crisium is the site of a gravitational anomaly known as a "mascon," or mass concentration.
		For Mare Crisium, however, we are preparing a large number of images from each of several photographic negatives.

		The Mare Fecunditatis is fully revealed, south of the midpoint of the terminator, and the contrast between the Mare Crisium and its bright surrounding region is becoming more pronounced.
		At a latitude midway between these two seas, the eastern end of the Mare Tranquillitatis has appeared, whilst south along the terminator and level with the southern edge of the Mare Fecunditatis is the eastern half of the smaller Mare Nectaris.
		To the north of the Mare Crisium by about twice its length is the distinctive dark-floored oval of class 5 Endymion, to the south-west of which, by a couple of times its width, is a distinctive pair: class 5 Atlas and to its west class 1 Hercules.

		The large mare extending for a distance of 420 km between the two arrows is Mare Smythii, which is at the transition between hemispheres in several respects.
		Smythii is a fairly extensive mare yet it occupies an old degraded basin, the western rim of which is detectable by carefully looking near the horizon and at the left of the mare-filled depression.
		Mare ridges appear to be higher and rilles or grabens deeper than on the east side.

		Second, the crust seems to be thicker on the lunar farside than on the nearside.
		They also explain why small mare patches are grouped together on the farside.
		Thus, mare volcanism is most likely inside these basins, especially where younger craters have dug into the basin floor.

		The position of Mare Crisium with respect to the limb or edge of the moon is a dramatic indicator of an effect called libration.
		This the position of Mare Crisium lying near the limb is the perfect indicator, at least during the moon's waxing phase.
		South of that is the small sea Mare Humorum (Moisture), connected to the ocean by a 'strait' with a trio of highland 'islands' in a triangular formation within.

		Crisium is nevertheless considered older than Nectaris and Humboldtianum because these lineations and chains are relatively rare in spite of comparable basin sizes; the most conspicuous ring of Crisium is 500 km in diameter and the outermost high ring has a 680 km diameter Wilhelms, 1973).
		This overlap of mare material by Imbrian crater materials is rare on the Moon and suggests that the older mare unit is older than most or all near-side mare material.
		In Mare Smythii, some material has fresh-appearing flow lobes and hummocks, and thin, sparsely cratered dark material is superposed on the unusual multiple-ringed craters or surrounds fresh-appearing rilles that are probably its source.

	Hitchhiker's Guide to Rukl Chart 26
		Crisium is persistently granular when lit "from the other side" (near the terminator after full moon).
		On a silly note, the whole of Mare Crisium looked tonight just like a baby seal about to pounce on Palus Somni: the two eastern dorsa are the ring around its neck, the two prominent craters (Pierce & Picard?) are the eyes, the little dorsa just west of there are whiskers.
		There is further conjecture that the exceptional brightness of some craters is due primarily to the youth of the crater, and that there is little variation in the brightness of the ejecta in major regions of the moon.

		The 'sea' at four o'clock is Mare Fecunditatis, 'the Sea of Fertility'.
		One theory of Mare formation suggests that in the earlier stages of the formation of the solar system, some three to four billion years ago, asteroids collided with the newly crusted over Moon and molten lava flowed out from the huge impact craters.
		Mare Crisium is unusual in being a separate 'sea'.

	Moon Miners' Manifesto: Prize Lunar Real Estate
		This oval Mare, the size of Wisconsin and Upper Michigan together, is clearly distinct from the "chain of seas" that run into each other: Fertility, Tranquility, Serenity, Rains, the Ocean of Storms, etc. I am aware of no one else who is partial to Crisium.
		In contrast, a beacon in any of the eastern seas (Tranquility, Fertility, Crisium, etc.) would not be visible until the waning (post-full) Moon that rises later in the evening and would be noticed by far fewer people.
		As the mare basin-filling lava sheets were laid down in distinct episodes with lava tubes likely forming in each layer, there may be many intact lavatubes well below the surface layers in some lunar seas.
