Brief

Mons Rumker is a unique complex of lunar domes in the  NW quadrant of the Moon. The ESO image at upper left has been cropped to include all of Section 8 with Mons Rumker seen clearly at the eastern edge. The formation is around 70 km wide and is remarkably clear in the Lunar Orbiter image at upper right.
