Moonwatch

Moonwatch
"Three essential items for Moon observers. The Moon is usually the first celestial body that captures an amateur astronomer's attention and imagination. Its large size, close proximity and brightly illuminated features makes it a favorite subject of study for astronomers of all levels. Moonwatch is the convenient combination of three useful items for observing the Moon. These include: Moon Observer's Guide book Highly detailed map of the Moon's near side Photographic poster showing the Lunar phases. The "Moon Observer's Guide is a highly illustrated, practical introduction to moon-watching. It is organized with a twenty-eight day observing diary, and features tips on recording observations and helpful advice on Lunar photography. The "Moon Map (40" x 27") is a highly detailed look at the Moon's near side. Hundreds of physical features - all of which can be seen with binoculars or a telescope - are labeled and indexed, including the locations of Lunar landings. The sidebar text offers practical guidance on moon-watching and highlights spectacular features. A smaller map of the far side completes this comprehensive depiction of the Lunar surface. The "Moon poster (34 1/2" x 23") is a photograph showing all the Lunar phases. The poster is double-side, showing how the Moon is seen from both the southern and northern hemispheres. Moonwatch is an ideal starting point for the growing numbers of amateur astronomers.



Outpost on Apollo's Moon
Outpost on Apollo's Moon
In this time of recession, many argue that space exploration of the Moon and Mars will stultify real science and absorb funds better spent on domestic concerns. In Outpost on Apollo's Moon, Eric Burgess refutes this argument. His powerful affirmation of the necessity and importance of a wide-ranging American space program that can develop lunar outposts and, ultimately, permanantly staffed, self-sufficient Moon bases is an eloquent defense of space exploration. "As far as the American people are concerned", writes Burgess, "without continued expansion into space we will be sentencing our children to be stillborn in the womb of Earth while other nations venture forth into the great outside and strive for the adulthood of our species". Outpost on Apollo's Moon begins with an examination of the scientific and philosophical rationales for space travel, as well as an in-depth look at the physical details of the Moon and those who have studied it. Numerous tables, charts, and illustrations enhance the analysis. Burgess then assesses the success and failure of the various Apollo missions, and focuses on many of the physical and geological issues brought to light by them. Using the various programs as a starting point, Burgess shows how Apollo hardware and experience could be used to establish permanent human outposts on the Moon, paralleling what was done earlier on the Antarctic continent. Burgess argues that the Moon could ultimately provide research centers, tourist attractions, economic resources, and rehabilitation centers for the physically handicapped, who would weigh one-sixth of what they do on Earth. Drawing from his long experience in space activities. Burgess advances detailedproposals for the creation of operational lunar outposts. Throughout, he shows how colonization of the Moon could be extraordinarily useful for both science and commerce, and how the Moon could serve as a base of exploration for later ventures into the Solar System.



Cheshire moon - A Cheshire Moon, Dry Moon, or Wet Moon is a crescent moon, when the horns of the crescent point up, away from the horizon. This happens at the beginning of every lunation, around sunset, and again at the end of every lunation, around sunrise.

Lagrangian point - The Lagrangian points (IPA: ; also Lagrange point, L-point, or libration point), are the five positions in interplanetary space where a small object affected only by gravity can be stationary relative to two larger objects (such as a satellite with respect to the Earth and Moon). They are analogous to geosynchronous orbits in that they allow an object to be in a "fixed" position in space rather than an orbit in which its relative position changes continuously.

Archimedean point - An Archimedean point is a hypothetical vantage point from which an observer can objectively perceive the subject of inquiry, with a view of totality. The ideal of "removing oneself" from the object of study so that one can see it in relation to all other things, but remain independent of them, is described by a view from an Archimedean point.

Station point - A station point is a location or vantage point from which an artist or exhibitor intends an observer to experience an artwork.
