The Geminus quadrangle, centrally located in the northeast quadrant of the lunar near side, is dominated geologically by several multiringed circular basins outside the quadrangle and five relatively young, large craters mapped here. The terra and the older craters apparently are mantled by a nearly continuous blanket of ejecta from the Serenitatis, Crisium, Humboldtianum, and Imbrium...

The Grimaldi quadrangle lies at the southwest margin of Oceanus Procellarum about 1,000 km east of Orientale, the youngest of the lunar multi-ringed basins. The distal ends of the ejecta blanket surrounding the Orientale basin partly covers the western third of the quadrangle. The relatively small, two-ring Grimaldi basin is in the northwest corner of the quadrangle, and the Humorum...

The area of MC-28 is centered at the east edge of the Hellas Planitia (Hellas basin and surrounding plains) within densely cratered terrain that covers more than half the surface of Mars (Carr, 1973). The deepest part of the basin lies 4-5 km below the surface of the cratered terrain (Hanel and others, 1972). An irregular band of mountain and knobby material about the eastern margin of...

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...

The Hommel quadrangle is in the southeast highlands of the earthside hemisphere of the Moon. The major geologic units are smooth and ridged terra materials, plains-forming materials and crater materials Mare material is absent. In the absence of extensive stratigraphic datum horizons, the geologic units were tentatively correlated with the type areas of the lunar geologic systems...

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...
