The Mare Tyrrhenum quadrangle is bounded by lat 0 degrees and 30 degrees S. and long 225 degrees W. and 270 degrees W. The central part of the quadrangle is dominated by Tyrrhena Patera, a large shield volcano, and associated low-albedo ridged plains that probably are basaltic lava flows similar to the lunar maria. The western, northern, and eastern margins of the quadrangle are located in crater

The Margaritifer Sinus quadrangle lies within a broad north-sloping trough, the Chryse lowland, between the elevated Tharsis plateau to the west and the cratered upland to the east. The rugged, uniquely martian chaotic terrain is best developed in this quadrangle. Sinuous furrows a few kilometers wide and as much as several hundred kilometers long cover most of the quadrangle; in several places ar

The Iapygia quadrangle, in the equatorial region of Mars just north of the Hellas basin, is mainly ancient, hilly, and cratered upland terrain. The southern one-third of the quadrangle is dominated by mountain and knobby materials representing mountains of pre-Hellas material and material related to the Hellas basin and mappable in a 500-km-wide zone circumjacent to it. The northeast quadrant of t

The Systematic mapping of lava flow units in the Tharsis region has been compiled into a series of 16 maps at 1:2,000,000 scale. This work provides information on the sources and areal extent of the lava flows, on their eruptive sequences and relative ages, and on relations between the flows and geologic structure in the largest, most active tectonic and volcanic province on Mars. Some of the maps

Material exposed on the surface of the moon is heterogeneous. The albedo and other physical characteristics that have been determined with the use of optical and radio telescopes vary from one part of the moon to another, and the variations are patially correlated with differences in topography . Discontinuities in the areal variation permit the surfaces material to be divided into map units, each

The Lavinia Planitia quadrangle (V-55) is in the southern hemisphere of Venus and extends from 25 degrees to 50 degrees south latitude and from 330 degrees to 360 degrees longitude. It covers the central and northern part of Lavinia Planitia and parts of its margins. Lavinia Planitia consists of a centralized, deformed lowland flooded by volcanic deposits and surrounded by Dione Regio to the west

The Sappho Patera quadrangle (V-20) of Venus is bounded by 0 degrees and 30 degrees East longitude, 0 degrees and 25 degrees North latitude. It is one of 62 quadrangles covering the entire planet at a scale of 1:5,000,000. The quadrangle derives its name from Sappho Patera, a large rimmed depression (diameter about 225 km) lying on top of a shield-shaped mountain named Irnini Mons. Sappho, a noted

The surface of the Moon is heterogeneous. Surface materials are classed on the basis of telescopic observations into units, each having a limited range of topographic and other physical such as albedo, the reflectivity under full-Moon illumination. Such units are considered analogous to the rock-stratigraphic formations of terrestrial geology. By application of the principals of superposition and

This 1:250,000- scale geologic map is one of a series prepared largely from photographs transmitted by Ranger IX (reproduced in a report by Jet Propulsion Lab., 1966). It depicts the geology of the crater Alphonsus (in which Ranger IX impacted) and environs. The primary objective of the mapping was to apply extant lunar mapping techniques used on relatively small scale telescopic photographs to th
