LUNAR SURFACE OBSERVING: Apollo Landing Sites


Imagery with a 12" newtonian reflector and a Celestron Neximage webcam, and a TeleVue 102 refractor/Olympus C740UZ afocal 55mm/2x barlow, processed in Registax versions 4 and 5, PhotoShop Elements 2.0 and the Gimp 2.0.

For the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing I had intended to image all of the landing sites, however it turns out I had most of them in my archives so here they are......

I will still try for them again with the 12 inch reflector and the NexImage.
