Do you have aperture fever? Do you crave a big scope - a 14" or maybe an 18"? If so, I say, stop thinking small! You can use the Mt Wilson 60" reflector for your lunar studies. This image was taken afocally at the big scope's Cassegrain focus with a standard digital camera.

Lunar names have caused a vast amount of confusion every since the second Moon map was made by Hevelius, who didn't accept the nomenclature devised by the first mapper and namer, Van Langren. By 1935 the International Astronomical Union had agreed on a set of nomenclature that has been the basis for everything since.
A Lumpy Mare

NASA selected the maria as landing sites for early Apollo missions because everyone knows maria are smooth. But this low sun image by Jim Phillips shows that at least this part of Mare Tranquillitatis is peppered with dome-like hills and swells and linear ridges. But you ain't seen nothing!
