| − | <td>I have been observing from my back deck recently using the Orion 4.5" [http://www.telescope.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=9814 StarBlast]. This short focus insturment is perfect for presenting nearly the entire disk or half the illuminated disk. Chuck's sketch reminds me of this synoptic perspecive, providing a broad regional view without many details but giving a classic view. Such views and drawings are not of scientific interest but are remarkably satisfying in depicting the Moon as we remember/idealize it to be. I like that aspect of observing.<br />
