Feast your eyes on this remarkable telescopic image of the Davy crater chain! Jim Phillips took it with his 8" refractor and got a result that's closer to spacecraft views than Earthly images.
A Strange Depression

The southeastern highlands of the Moon are infrequently visited by amateur and professional students of the Moon rarely observe the southeastern highlands of the Moon because the region doesn't seem very interesting. Other than Janssen there aren't any large, dramatic craters.
Look Twice, Twice

Wade Clark has combined four images showing the two day old moon with earthshine setting behind Lyman Hill in Skagit County, Washington State, USA. Wouldn't it be fun to live on a planet with multiple Moons! — Chuck Wood Technical Details: June 19, 2004.

Question: What can an amateur astronomer with a webcam and 10" telescope on the balcony do that NASA hasn't done yet? Answer: Take high resolution images along the terminator to reveal domes and low elevation features. That is exactly what K.C. Pau does.

On the Mare

Surveyor 1 landed in Oceanus Procellarum on 2 June 1966, near the crater Flamsteed. A 100 km wide 'ghost' crater, Flamsteed P, surrounds the landing site, consisting of a ring of hills which are probably just the peaks of an old crater rim, mostly flooded by mare basalts.
Magic on the Mare

What a wondrous piece of the Moon! As the Apollo 15 Command Module circled the Moon its Metric Camera took 2240 images of the lunar surface. The very best, like this one near the boundary of Mare Imbrium and Oceanus Procellarum, are works of arts and inspirations for science.
Transient TLP

Transient Lunar Phenomena (TLP) were the 20th century equivalent of the 19th century quest for change on the Moon. From Galileo to Herschel to Schroeter to the 1835 Moon Hoax to Pickering and his lunar insects, people wanted to believe that the Moon was inhabited.
