Scientific paper

A composite drawing of the Marius Hills region is presented. This region is a unique, huge lunar dome field located west of Marius in the Oceanus Procelarum. The Marius domes often have greater than 2:1 major:minor axis ratios, are steep (with slope angles over 5 degrees), and often merge with wrinkle ridges. It is noted that, for the amateur observer, this lunar region offers a unique and extensive field of domes, rilles, wrinkle ridges, and lava flows that is unlike any other known region on the moon or any other area in the solar system.
