The Future of LPOD
1.12.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
An eclipse makes visible the change of the Moon's position as it continually orbits Earth. Change is a constant in all things and LPOD is about to undergo a significant change. My family and I are moving to Nicaragua in January, 2005.
Cleomedes Unveiled
30.11.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Spaceship Daversin has just returned from another Moon mission with the best images in existence of Cleomedes crater. This view shows many features unknown to lunar science. Congratulations, Bruno! This is the clearest view ever of the two known rilles that meet east of the 550 m high off-center peak, Alpha.
Trough & Pancake

Here is another wonderful image of the Cauchy fault, rilles, domes and crater, to complement the previous low sun view of the western end of this interesting area. This very high resolution image is remarkable for being relatively high sun and yet showing beautifully the low relief domes.
Back to a Fractured Floor

During the nine months that LPOD has existed there has been a continuing evolution in the quality of lunar imaging. In January and February I was amazed that images were being acquired with 8 to 14" telescopes that were better than the world's previous best, often taken with the Catalina 61" telescope!
Terrific Taruntius

Taruntius is an often overlooked crater. There are few photos of it by amateurs or spacecraft. This great image by Tom Leech shows what we have been missing. The 58 km wide crater...
Lunar Super-Heroes

The Olympics are over, but some Greek super heroes live forever. Two of the mightiest gods of ancient Greece were Atlas and Hercules. Atlas was so strong that he held the Earth...
A Glorious Image
25.11.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Jim Phillips' low sun image of Posidonius is one of the most dramatic lunar images I have every seen, and its publication in the first 10 days of LPOD's history set a high standard. The standard has now been raised!
Viscous Volcanics?
24.11.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
One of the weirdest terrains on the Moon is a mound of lumpiness extending north from the crater Descartes. This terrain consists of a series of hills and ridges separated by valleys and depressions. It looks like a super-large, rough-textured lava flow erupted in Deslandres and flowed over the crater wall to the north.
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.
Diamondback Rille
22.11.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
The lunar maria contain many sinuous rilles. All are somewhat difficult to see, and many are best known from orbital photography. One such feature is Diamondback Rille, an informal, astronaut-named guidepost on the approach to the Apollo 11 landing site in southern Mare Tranquillitatis.
