	Volcanic Landforms: Features
		A crater sits at the top of a volcano and is the location where much of the lava, gas and other rock fragments are ejected from.
		An extremely large crater is some times found at the summit of a volcano.
		These massive craters called calderas, are created when pressure builds inside the volcano until the top is literally blown off, magma drains back into the central vent and the top of the cone collapses in.

		Ritter is the highest peak in the Ritter Range, a volcanic ridge west of the Sierra Crest, just outside Yosemite's southeast boundary.
		For highpoint seekers, Mt. Ritter is also the highpoint of Madera County, one of the more arduous of the 58 county highpoints in California.
		'Ritter is the name of the great German geographer, the founder of the science of modern comparative geography.' (Whitney, Yosemite Guide-Book, 1870, 101.) Karl Ritter (1779-1859) was a professor of history at the University of Berlin when Whitney was a student there during the 1840s.

		During a brief trip to Pu`u` O`o on the morning of the 6th, scientists saw that the crater lake had risen ~8 m since 29 March (the lake surface was 17 m below the E rim), several cones were active, and lava was flowing into the lava lake from two vents.
		The crater of Pu`u `O`o was dark and obscured by fume.
		During 29 January to 1 February mild volcanic activity occurred at Kilauea, with incandescence visible at vents in Pu`u `O`o's crater and small surface flows on the central or southern part of the rootless shield complex, an area ~0.5 km SW of Pu`u `O`o.

	NexStar 50 Lunar Club Observation Log - Douglas E. Johnson
		While it is nice to speculate that 5 monks may have described its origin from a meteorite in 1178, the current evidence suggests what they saw was most likely due to their witnessing a meter (Beta Taurid meteor) burning up in a trajectory that was limited to their field of view.
		Being a young crater, one would at least expect to see portions of its ray system- if it, indeed, it could be seen from Earth.
		Date Observed: 8/10/05 9:30 PM Comments: Large, well-defined crater- the 1st of a chain of three (Theophilus, Cyrillis, Catharina) lying at the western junction of Mare Nectaris and Sinus Asperitatis- with prominent terraced walls, smooth floor and prominent central peaks.

		It was also thought at the time that many of the small craters on the Alphonsine floor were volcanic in origin, and sampling might give clues as to when tectonic activity ceased in the moon's interior.
		RLC 14 is the second of the Alphonsus sequence; it is filled by the crater, and corresponds more or less to the exhibited photograph from Ranger IX (see item 40).
		The impact point is indicated on the upper right floor of the crater; the small box indicates the area covered by the next chart, RLC 15.

		Mono Craters includes 3 large rhyolitic (obsidian) flows, 6 to 8 steep-sided rhyolite domes, a number of explosion craters, as well as the islands in Mono Lake, and Black Point, the basaltic lava flow on the north shore of the lake.
		The arcuate shape of the Mono crater chain has lead scientists to suggest that the Mono Craters may be analogous to the Glass Mountain rhyolite and hence a precursor to caldera formation (the dashed line on the map to the left).
		The tephra ring, with a diameter of 3500 feet is comprised of pumice ash and lapilli, obsidian fragments and granite pebble ejecta.

		The hole in the ground is owned mostly by the family of the man who spent a large chunk of his life down inside the crater.
		"I live here at the crater, in one of those apartments right there," said the retired educator, now the manager of the facility, pointing across the parking lot to a row of crater housing units where he has lived for the past five years.

		But a high Sun image shows only the two dark halo craters as dark - the rest of the floor is bright.

		The Long Valley caldera and the Mono-Inyo Craters volcanic chain compose a late Tertiary to Quaternary volcanic complex on the west edge of the Basin and Range Province at the base of the Sierra Nevada frontal fault escarpment.
		The prevolcanic basement in the area is mainly Mesozoic granitic rock of the Sierra Nevada batholith and Paleozoic metasedimentary and Mesozoic metavolcanic rocks of the Mount Morrison, Gull Lake, and Ritter Range roof pendants (Map A).
		The Geologic Map of the Long Valley Caldera, Mono-Inyo Craters Volcanic Chain, and Vicinity, Eastern California was originally published in 1989 by Roy A. Bailey.

		The craters and the fragmental debris were probably formed by bombardment of the lunar surface by meteoroids and by pieces of the Moon itself, hurled through space from larger craters.
		The crater, one of hundreds of thousands of this type on the Moon, is much akin to the well-known Meteor Crater in Arizona; namely, caused by the impact of an outside mass.
		The rock on the near rim of the crater is 2 feet across and casts a 4-foot-long shadow to its left.
