ASTRONOMY: Hidden crater under Mare Nubium? -
Rupes Recta in these images, is very distinct, because the Moon phase at that time, that makes this wall very clear. Observed overall, it gives the impression that there are two tectonic plates, and one yielded and became lower than the right one. Rupes Recta resembles as a fencing sword, especially in these lighting conditions - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/hidden-crater-under-mare-nubium.html
ASTRONOMY: Plinius and Menelaus craters on Mare Serenitatis/Tranquillitatis on the Moon -
These images have areas of intense color, in which in the basin Serenitatis and Tranquillitatis’s delimitations are observed. This phenomenon is observed only when the Sun illuminates the Moon at a high angle, otherwise, at a low angle, the colors are practically unnoticed. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/plinius-and-menelaus-craters-on-mare.html
ASTRONOMY: Mare Vaporum and Manilius on the Moon Pictures through the telescope. -
Manilius (39 km) is like crater Plinius (43 km), on shapes, dimensions, they are just a few kilometers difference in size, and both have central mountains, but also because they are the only of its kind in the region.
Manilius, is located on the east of Vaporum basin, a plain at the foot of the Montes Apenninus. Mare Vaporum (245 km), has a round shape, distinctive and clearly defined, without interpenetration with other basins. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/mare-vaporum-and-manilius-on-moon.html
ASTRONOMY: Similarity of Arzachel crater and Copernicus -
Notice a small crater, located on the floor of Arzachel, on the right of the central mountain. This is called Arzachel A. It has a diameter of 10 km.
Note terraces on the interior walls of the crater, very well shaped, in waves. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/similarity-of-arzachel-crater-and.html
ASTRONOMY: Deslandres and the surrounding craters. Astronomical telescope images -
These images are very clear, as the camera focus was best. In the pictures here, we have the huge crater Deslandres (234 km) north of the bright crater Tycho. To view the telescope video of these photos, go here.
A very bright rays of Tycho with high albedo, are spread on the whole region, but these are not seen in the photos because of the Moon phase at that time, when the Sun was at a low angle. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/deslandres-and-surrounding-craters.html
ASTRONOMY: Detailed images of Walther crater by telescope -
ASTRONOMY,Detailed,images,Walther,crater,telescope
Walther A, with a diameter of 12 km, is inside Walther, north of the central peak. On the floor are scattered remains of Tycho crater, located just 421 km from it. But Tycho’s rays are scattered across all craters in the region, even far beyond Walther. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/detailed-images-of-walther-crater-by.html#sthash.2g4btkbl.dpuf
ASTRONOMY: Sinus Medii Pallas and Murchison Photos by camera and telescope. -
Surveyor 6 landed on Sinus. On November 10, 1967, Surveyor 6 was the fourth in it’s series that has made a successful landing on the Moon. Mission sent a total of 29,952 images and acquired over 100 hours of lunar data on material composition. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/sinus-medii-pallas-and-murchison-photos.html
LUPU VICTOR ASTRONOMY: Maginus of the Moon in astronomical telescope images -
The most interesting photo in this article, I think is the first one, because of the hue and brightness which makes a very realistic landscape. Tycho is immersed in a completely dark and Maginus against the sunrise, has a lit interior west wall. - See more at: http://lupuvictor.blogspot.ro/2013/02/maginus-of-moon-in-astronomical.html
ASTRONOMY: Hercules and Atlas Video by astronomical telescope in September 2012 -
Hercules and Atlas, are two craters located in the northwest part of the Moon. Between them is a distance of 30 km from one edge to the other. Although they are close, they have large differences between them, both size and inside.
ASTRONOMY: Schickard beautiful crater Video by telescope 2012 -
Schickard (227 km), is a large, flooded floor crater, in the southwest quadrant, near the edge of the Moon, distinct and uneven, with several tones and dotted with small craters. This crater is easy to locate with binoculars in high sunlight conditions.
