Everything about Crisium Basin totally explained
Mare Crisium (the "sea of crises") is a
lunar mare located in the
Moon's Crisium basin, just northeast of
Mare Tranquillitatis. This basin is of the
Pre-Imbrian period, 4.55 to 3.85 billion years ago. This mare is 376 miles (605 km) in diameter, and 176,000 km
2 in area. It has a very flat floor, with a ring of wrinkled ridge toward its outer boundaries. Ghost craters, craters that have largely been buried under deposits of other material, are located to the south.
The crater has many notable features in and around it. The cape-like feature protruding into the southeast of the mare is
Promontorium Agarum. On the western rim of the mare is the
palimpsest Yerkes. The
crater Picard is located just to the east of Yerkes, and northwest of Picard is the crater
Peirce.
Mare Anguis can be seen northeast of Mare Crisium.
