From the 1987 Moss Catalogue:

"The Star Dome offers a very attractive combination of features--freestanding, four season shelter, screened top window, light weight, small rolled sized, plus a vestibule.

Our lightest four season tent, the Star Dome is extremely strong, stable and easier to pitch on rough terrain because it is freestanding. Ventilation and views are provided for via a large rear window and the usual screened ceiling. The ceiling also has a zippered window flap that can be adjusted to supply just the amount of ventilation you need.

The steeply curved, nearly vertical sidewalls provide a generous useable floor area of 36 square feet. The full coverage rainfly provides optimum weather protection. The vestibule/fly has a separate arch which forms a curve over the door to provide more storage space. It rolls into a compact 1 foot 4 inch by 6 inch package. The Star Dome will provide you comfortable, dependable shelter in a wide variety of conditions with space, views and a vestibule."
