LAC-41 This detail of an [/LAC LAC] map from 1963 identifies six Roman-numeralled [/rima rilles] that were then associated with [/Archimedes Archimedes]. The entire complex is now known as Rimae Archimedes.

  • An interpretation of Rimae Archimedes by John Moore based on Lunar Orbiter photo IV-109-H3 and the notations in the [/Lunar%20Orbiter%20Photographic%20Atlas%20of%20the%20Near%20Side%20of%20the%20Moon book] by Charles Byrne. This image shows a small region to the southeast of [/Archimedes Archimedes]. As indicated on the LAC map, Rimae Archimedes was traditionally a system of six numbered [/rima rilles], mostly in or around the [/Montes%20Archimedes Montes Archimedes] region. The upper row of red dots in the right hand image have been placed above a part of the traditional Rima Archimedes IV, while the lower dots suggest the location of a previously unnumbered branch.

Additional Information


Nomenclature

  • Named from nearby crater ([/Archimedes Archimedes]).
  • Catalog entries 1173-1184 in Mary Blagg's [/Collated%20List Collated List] of 1913 are devoted to rilles associated with [/Archimedes Archimedes], all of which were mapped by Neison, and a lesser number by Schmidt.
  • Based on the listing provided by the Army Map Service, the original IAU nomenclature of [/Blagg%20and%20M%C3%BCller Blagg and Müller] seems to have retained six of these. Their locations are plotted on the accompanying maps.
  • The [/System%20of%20Lunar%20Craters System of Lunar Craters] also has six rilles named after [/Archimedes Archimedes], but as indicated on [/Quad%20Maps Quad Map] D3, they seem to have been completely renamed from the designations used by [/Blagg%20and%20M%C3%BCller Blagg and Müller]. In particular, the former Archimedes I, III and IV have become [/Rima%20Bradley Rima Bradley], with the Latinized designation Rima Archimedes I moving to a feature previously unrecognized by the [/IAU IAU].
  • The designations on the [/LAC LAC] map reproduced above appear to be the same as those proposed in the [/System%20of%20Lunar%20Craters System of Lunar Craters].
  • [/NASA%20SP-241 NASA SP-241] (not an official IAU publication), attempts to identify the IAU-named features on [/Lunar%20Orbiter Lunar Orbiter] photos. It lists five of the Archimedes rilles in its index (omitting #1), and makes the following identifications of the remainder with [/Collated%20List Collated List] numbers: II=1175, III=1178, IV=1179, V=1180, VI=1182. With the exception of the omission of Rima Archimedes I, the numbering and identification in [/NASA%20SP-241 SP-241] appears to be the same as that in the [/LAC LAC] map reproduced above.
  • In 1973 the IAU expressed its intention of renaming multiple [/rima rille systems], and since then the status of the Roman-numeraled desginations has been unclear, with the former systems currently being referred to in their entirety as "rimae".
  • The current nomenclature maps in the IAU-approved [/USGS%20Digital%20Atlas USGS Digital Atlas] label five rilles as part of Rimae Archimedes. These appear to include Rima Archimedes I of the [/System%20of%20Lunar%20Craters System of Lunar Craters], but seem to omit its Rima Archimedes IV (possibly because labeling it would have created too much clutter?).
