From LPOD
Jump to: navigation, search

Let's get some discussion going here!

For me its interesting to look back to this LPOD of 11 years ago and realize that the 3 books I mentioned as ones I used all the time are no longer in that category. Instead of Rukl's Atlas of the Moon I use the 21st Century Atlas Maurice Collins and I did and also the online map on the USGS lunar names site. Baldwin's book is still largely right but we have moved on so far that I only use it occasionally to check historic questions. And Don Wilhelms' Geology of the Moon is somewhat similar. There are so many better images from LRO and so much new understanding from LRO and Kaguga that we have moved on. I don't really have a single book to replace these - the books with the new understanding haven't been published yet.
