INTRODUCTION
"...a rose, by any other name..."-Shakespeare
Planetary nomenclature, like terrestrial nomenclature, is used to uniquely identify a feature on the surface of a planet or satellite so that the feature can be easily located, described, and discussed. This report contains information on all surface feature nomenclature for Venus approved by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) through December 1993.
Planetary nomenclature is adjudicated by the IAU through the Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature (WGPSN). The WGPSN reviews all name proposals for adherence to IAU rules and guidelines regarding planetary nomenclature. Rules are defined to ensure that the nomenclature is clear, unambiguous, international in scope, and noncontroversial.
The Venusian nomenclature is based on an overall theme of the feminine; as Venus is the only major planet named for a female deity, the IAU chose to give all features on Venus female names. Guidelines for the kinds of names that may be applied to specific feature types are outlined in Appendix 1. Some features are given names commemorative of historical women; such persons must be noteworthy in some way and must have been deceased for at least 3 years. They cannot be a political or military figure from the 19th or 20th centuries nor a religious figure of any century (there are, of course, a few exceptions).
Descriptor terms, or feature types, are an integral part of planetary feature names (except for craters, for which the feature type is implied). Feature types (Appendix 1) are intentionally loosely defined, so as to place features in broad categories without implying geologic history or geomorphology.
Suggestions for names must go through a lengthy review process before they are approved, and, therefore, candidate names should be submitted to the IAU well before they are needed. To make proposals, or to obtain more information regarding rules and the review process, contact Joel Russell, U.S. Geological Survey, 2255 N. Gemini Dr., Flagstaff AZ 86001, or phone 602-556-7211; internet [email protected].
This gazetteer is divided into two parts. The first lists names that have been given full approval by the IAU. The second part contains all names that have provisional approval; these names have been recommended by the WGPSN but have not yet been voted upon by the IAU General Assembly, which meets only every 3 years. Provisional names may be used in publication, but their provisional status must be indicated. (The U.S. Geological Survey, for example, places an asterisk (*) after provisional names and explains its meaning.) All provisional names in this report should receive full approval at the General Assembly scheduled for August 1994.
Feature information includes the feature name, the center
latitude and longitude, the diameter or long dimension in kilometers, and a brief description of the origin of the feature name.
Appendix 1 lists the types of features approved for Venus, their definitions, and the guidelines used in selecting names for each feature type. Appendix 2 contains lists of most of the sources of names and a general bibliography.
