Looks like it's somehow related to the possible impact of farside crater Giordano Bruno, observed by five Canterbury monks (see Carl Sagan's book COSMOS, pages...
Hi Danny, Thanks for your reply, is this a problem that someone is going to get on top of a fix soon? It is fustrating as I (and I'm sure others) often use...
Hi Ken, I thought I was the only one who noticed this curious error. Seems like it's on everyone's screen. I wanted to explore Paolo Amoroso's additional...
Hi All, Over the last few days whenever I go to the website the-moon.wikispaces.com and try to view images of a lunar feature from the LPOD archive I am unable...
BTW; The first time I noticed them (the "Frigoris handcuffs") was on page 22 (LAC 11) of the Clementine Atlas. Then I thought (or wanted to think) that they...
Wes, just a gorgeous image! At this resolution/scale, it's a whole new "world". Bob ... From: starman10us To: lunar-observing@yahoogroups.com Sent: 11/12/2009...
I never grow bored of Rupes Recta, in fact, when the phase is right to observe it, there is where you will find me. I often compared it to the topographic...
Wes, that has to be one of the most outstanding lunar images I think I've ever seen. You almost feel like you could open your lunar lander door and climb down...
Hi, Another one from 11-05-09,Theophilus IMO has the most impressive central peak of any crater on the near side in fact I think it is practically a mountain...
No - the possible CC isn't related. The handcuff features - good descriptive name! - are most likely Imbrium basin secondary craters that were flooded by ...
Now I understand, Danny. I took those to be old, flooded craters. Peter ... -- Peter Lloyd Bedfordshire, UK. 51º 56' 47"N 0º 32' 05"W http://www [dot]...
Peter, No no! The sperm-like formation east of the bright ray-crater La Condamine S is just a wrinkle ridge (the one with the small bowl-shaped crater at its ...
I'm not sure what you mean either, Danny, but are you referring to the feature to the right of the very bright crater near the top centre of the picture? It...
Chuck, I could be wrong, but... I think this is the only region on the entire moon which is some sort of "meeting place" of those "twisted arc-shapes" (in that...
Danny - I am not completely sure what features you are referring to as moulures. There are a lot of intersecting and flooded basin secondary craters here that...
Dear group, A couple of months ago (or perhaps more) I noticed a curious kind of lunar surface formation on several of Lunar Orbiter 4's photographs. This...
The orbital reference is what one finds when looking up the derivation of first and last quarter... I still find it fascinating that "full" winds up in the...
Peter, I hadn't thought of it in reference to the orbit quarters. Too narrow thinking on my part. Even then it is not consistent though as you point out, with...
The quarters refer to the lunar cycle - new, first quarter, full, third quarter, and back to new. Think of it as quarters of the orbit if you like. So, yes,...
Hi Stefan, Thanks for the feedback - I didn't think anyone would like the lens flare. I wish I could take credit for nicely judging anything here, but it was...
