Description

Nomenclature
- This feature is catalog entry 301 in Mary Blagg's Collated List, where it is described as one of two rilles labeled Römer Zeta by Neison.
- It entered the original IAU nomenclature of Named Lunar Formations as Newcomb Ir, named after the nearby crater, Newcomb.
- The name became Rima Newcomb I in the System of Lunar Craters, where it is plotted on the Quad Maps.
- The name can be seen printed on LAC 43 (1965).
- The name Rima Newcomb was apparently eliminated during the preparation of the IAU Planetary Gazetteer, where it is listed as a dropped/disallowed name with a drop date of "1985". No record of the name actually having been dropped exists in IAU Transactions XIXB, the volume for 1985.
- The Collated List also included three other "valleys" near Newcomb: catalog entries 316-318. These entered the IAU nomenclature as Newcomb E and F, and Berzelius G.
