Mare Crisium (łac. Morze Przesileń) – morze księżycowe położone w basenie Crisium, na północny wschód od Mare Tranquillitatis. Początki tej formacji sięgają epoki nektaryjskiej, jednak materiał skalny pochodzi z okresu późnoimbryjskiego. Średnica Mare Crisium wynosi 418 km.
Na tym obszarze rozbiła się radzieckie sonda Łuna 15 (21 lipca 1969) oraz wylądowały: Łuna 23 (6 listopada 1974) i Łuna 24 (18 sierpnia 1976), która pobrała próbki skał księżycowych i powróciła na Ziemię.

en:Mare Crisium, also known as the "Sea of Crisis", is
located in the Crisium basin, just northeast of Mare Tranquillitatis. This basin is of the Nectarian epoch, while the mare material is of the Upper Imbrian epoch. This mare is 376 miles in diameter, with many notable features in and around it.
The cape-like feature protruding into the southeast of the mare is Promonitorium Agarum. On the western rim of the mare you can make out the ghost crater Yerkes. The crater Picard can be seen, just to the east of Yerkes. You can also make out the crater Peirce , just northwest of Picard. Mare Anguis can be clearly seen just to the
northeast of Mare Crisium.cylindrical map projection of the Moon. The Moon's whole surface was mapped by the Clementine spacecraft in 1994, here North is at the top. The dark floor of crater Plato is at the middle top above Mare Imbrium, while the bright floor and rays of crater Tycho is near the middle bottom below Mare Imbrium. Mare Procellarum is at the near left, and Mare Tranquillitatis is just right of centre and Mare Crisium is at the near right. The far left and far right show the contrast of the mostly cratered farside with small isolated mare.
