ARISTARCHUS
In this part of Oceanus Procellarum there are exceptionally interesting formations; these include Schröter's Valley, which is visible through even quite a small telescope, and the long sinuous rilles Rima Marius and Rimae Aristarchus. Herodotus Omega is a lunar dome and numerous domes can be found in the vicinity of crater Marius (see also map 29). This area is dominated by the crater Aristarchus.
