Death of Observing?
south to the left image by Maurice Collins, Palmerston North, New Zealand
This piece of a crescent image from July 7 provided by Maurice, shows wonderful detail from Shickard and friends near the terminator (bottom left) to Orientale on the limb. Sadly, it was cloudy in New Zealand when this image was made, so it isn't from a telescope and camera but from a topography datafile and a computer. Maurice created this image inside his house on a night when the sky wouldn't cooperate. He used the high resolution digital topography model data (DTM) from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Chuck Wood
