Pole Me Over!
image by team of French amateurs - P. Tosi, E. Rousset and J.L. Dauvergne -using the 1m telescope at the Observatory of Pic du Midi
The south pole of the Moon is a rugged place, especially this region beyond Cabeus crater looking over to the peaks near the crater Kocher which lies beyond the left hand peak (M5) on the limb. The right hand peak (M4) is on the rim of the crater Ashbrook. Mount Palomar took closeup adaptive optics images with the 200" Hale reflector that are hard to tell the difference with this, taken with a 1-metre (39") telescope at a suburb site at Pic du Midi.
I can almost feel the moondust in the picture!

P.S. Chuck is away at a meeting so Rick, Jim and I will be filling in some LPOD's if Chuck isn't able.
P.P.S. Remember Pearl Harbor today.....69 years ago.

COMMENTS?Click the Discussion tab above. The rotating globe shows locations of folks who visit LPOD. The most recent visits include location names - so you can see who else is on when you visit. For example, if you see "Wheeling/ West Virginia" I am probably editing an LPOD. After a few minutes just a small red dot appears. You can support LPOD when you buy any book from Amazon thru LPOD! |
