For Mars, it's not that creative compared with, for example, Venus which has much more detailed requirements based on different features (possibly because they ran out of names when lumping things together). | |

| Mar 21, 2020 at 14:32 | comment | added | Bob516 | I see the idea of the theme. The cavus features are all named with a form of the word night, makes sense, Noctis Labyrinthus. I'm assuming naming a mensa (mesa) in the region would follow some thematic idea as well. Does that make sense to you? | |
