	Mare Marginis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mare Marginis is a lunar mare that lies on the very edge of the lunar nearside.
		Thus, Mare Marginis seems to mark a low-lying region of the highlands where mare lavas were just able to reach the surface.
		The major crater to the north of Marginis is Al-Biruni, with Ibn Yunus to the southeast and Goddard to the northwest.

	Mare Imbrium - Encyclopedia Glossary Meaning Explanation Mare Imbrium (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Mare Imbrium, Latin for "Sea of Showers" or "Sea of Rains", is a vast lunar mare filling a basin on Earth's Moon.
		The mare material is thought to be about 5 km deep, giving the Imbrium Basin a total depth of 12 km; it is thought that the original crater left by the Imbrium impact was as much as 100 km deep, but the floor of the basin bounced back upward immediately afterward.
		Mare Imbrium is between 3700 million and 3900 million years old, and is the youngest of the lunar maria except for Mare Orientale.

	Mare Smythii - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mare Smythii (latin for "Sea of William Henry Smyth") is a lunar mare located along the equator on the easternmost edge of the lunar near side.
		The Smythii basin where the mare is located is of the Pre-Nectarian epoch, while the surrounding features are of the Nectarian system.
		The mare material, which make up the floor of the mare, is a high alumious basalt, and consists of Upper Imbrian basalt covered by Eratosthenian basalt.

		The basin material is of the Nectarian epoch, while the mare material is of the Upper Imbrian epoch.
		The crater Komarov is to the southeast of the mare, and the crater Titov is in the northern region of the mare.

		Mare Humboldtianum has a diameter of 160 km and lies on the northern half of the Moon, northeast of the walled crater Endymion.
		The Mare lies at the centre of a 600 km wide impact basin with several concentric mountain ridges, though the ridges are not as well defined as in the Orientale basin.
		Mare Marginis is an elongated dark mare plain covering an area of 62,000 square kilometres.

		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.

		Mare Marginis is located on the eastern limb of the Moon, directly north and bordering the Smythii cryptomafic area.
		Mare Marginis is associated with the pre-Nectarian Marginis basin.
		For the thickness of the Korolev cryptomafic deposit, the average mare thickness (400 m) of the eastern and western maria [De Hon and Waskom, 1976; De Hon, 1979] is assumed.

		Possible sources of the secondaries north of Mare Marginis include the craters Gauss, Lomonosov, and Neper, and the basins Humboldtianum and Orientale; the latter is exactly antipodal to the occurrence and a theoretically reasonable source (Moore and others, 1974).
		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.
		The older unit is mapped in the Marginis basin and in large craters in and near the Lomonosov-Fleming basin (see photo IV-17H to compare the two mare units and light-colored plains and terra units).

		Mare Smythii is located astride the equator on the moon's eastern limb - that is, at 90 degrees east longitude, in the zone between the nearside (permanently visible from Earth) and farside (permanently hidden from Earth) hemispheres.
		Mare Smythii is made up of volcanic rocks rich in useful minerals.

	LPOD - 2004-10-09 - Lunar Photo of the Day
		This is a very appropriate name, for this patch of dark mare material is at the visible margin of the Moon, but its also only marginally deserving the name "mare" and unlike most mare, there is almost no evidence that it is inside an impact basin.
		The mare itself covers a small area between Goddard and Neper, and those craters and a few others are filled with dark lava.
		According to Clementine altimetry, the floor of Mare Marginis is 3 km lower than the average lunar radius, and there is also a small mascon - a mass concentration - so perhaps there is a basin somewhere under Marginis after all.
