Ina Imaged!
5.02.2005 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Ina is such a small feature (3 km diameter) of such low relief (30 m) that it is L99 in my Lunar 100 list where objects are generally arranged from easiest to most difficult. It is very difficult to visually see Ina and has been almost unphotographable from Earth.
A NEW BEGINNING FOR LPOD AND LUNAR SCIENCE

SMART-1, which has been called SLOW-1 because of its 13.5 month-long voyage to the Moon has finally started imaging the surface. This is one of the images released by ESA showing data taken on the first close approach in early January.

U menya ne hvataet slov, chtoby opisat' fotografii Luny, sdelannye uchastnikami nashego proekta. Ya ne ustayu povtoryat' snova i snova: eshe odno blestyashe vypolnennoe foto..., skoree, ya prodolzhayu vse bol'she i bol'she porazhat'sya detal'nost'yu snimkov. K primeru voz'mite masterski sdelannyi snimok Al'piiskoi Doliny Stefena Kine.
Kopernik!

Kopernik odin iz samyh vazhnyh kraterov na Lune. Vy sprosite kak ya mogu nazvat' chto-libo na Lune "naibolee vazhnym"? Pozvol'te mne izmenit' pervoe predlozhenie i Vy veroyatno soglasites': Kopernik samyi vazhnyi krater na Lune iz-za togo, chemu on nas nauchil. Vot tri uroka, kotorye on nam prepodnes.
Gory na polyuse Luny
29.12.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Vsya oblast' yuzhnogo polyusa Luny predstavlyaet soboyu dramaticheskuyu kakofoniyu iz kraterov i pikov. Ekstremal'nye rakursy i ves'ma peresechennaya mestnost' delayut etu oblast' ves'ma trudnoi dlya navigacii. I vse eto tol'ko dlya zemnyh nablyudatelei, a predstav'te, kakie problemy po navigacii vstanut pered staratelyami po dobyche l'da v budushem!
Favority goda — Guk i Gipparh

Na rannih risunkah Luny obychno izobrazhalsya ves' ee disk. V 1665 godu Robert Guk (Robert Hooke), angliiskii sopernik Isaaka N'yutona, opublikoval (v svoei "Mikrografii") risunok tol'ko odnogo lunnogo obrazovaniya i etot risunok byl na udivlenie tochnym.
Favorite LPODs of the Year - Hippalus Arcs
27.12.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Impact basins are characterized by a family of features such as multiple rims, concentric fractures and ridges, a central depression, radial markings, and extensive ejecta deposits. This list results not from a single perfect basin, but from recognizing consistent patterns in all the Moon's basins.
Favorite LPODs of the Year - Lake of Death
26.12.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Do you consider Lacus Mortis - The Lake of Death - a crater? Because of the mare-like term "lacus" some observers just see it as a patch of mare material linking Mare Frigoris and Lacus Somniorum.
Favorite LPODs of the Year - Posidonius
25.12.2004 | Lunnoe foto dnya
Posidonius is a beacon of interest along the otherwise bland north-eastern shore of Serenitatis. The large (95 km wide, 2.3 km max depth crater may have originally looked like Copernicus with broad terraced walls and a scattering of peaks centered on a deep, flat floor. But that's not how it looks now!
Introducing PlanetWarp!

Earlier this year LPOD introduced J-P Metsavainio's procedure for using the commercial software Photoshop to digitally project telescopic lunar images onto a sphere. This manipulation restores foreshortened limb craters into circles. Now Philip...
