December 2019 TLO is available
The December 2019 issue of The Lunar Observer, newsletter of the ALPO Lunar Topographical Studies & Selected Areas Program, and the Lunar Geological Change program is available by clicking here. Back issues are also available at http://moon.scopesandscapes.com.
In the December 2019 The Lunar Observer look for some interesting articles about lunar domes, both from the Raffaello Lena, Carmelo Zannelli, Maximilian Teodorescu and Jim Phillips article about lunar domes near the craters Hall and Luther along with several images and articles about domes from Howard Eskildsen. John Sabia takes us on a tour of the Moon with a 9.5-inch Alvin Clark refractor, though Damian Peach’s image of Plato through a 1 m telescope is also quite the view. Sounds like dream telescopes for such a purpose. As always, Tony Cook provides an engaging article about lunar geologic change. Tours of the lunar topography are presented in short articles, drawings, and images throughout this issue. Enjoy and have fun observing our nearest neighbor in space.
