    The old rule of thumb for aerial photo interpretation is "shadows stab stomach." That is, rotate the image until shadows are pointing toward the viewer. This mitigates visual inversion of terrain and the true 3-D effect thus appears.

    You know, I have seen articles with severely blown up pictures of spacecraft on the Moon, but I’ve never seen as many great shots such as the ones you have compiled. I’m sure I’d be able to find several from NASA’s archives, I just haven’t been so inclined, so it was nice that you included so many.

    The writing on this channel just keeps getting better and better. Of all the sci-fi channels on RUclips, none can even come close to the realism and hardcore science that this channel is committed to in the stories they tell. The art and 3d rendering are also second to none. It’s just amazing to me how deep and layered the lore has gotten. Sometime in my lifetime I think that humanity will make it to the moon, and hopefully even beyond to explore other bodies in the solar system. Most people think I’m crazy but I really do believe that.

    I'm a passionate amateur astronomer and have two beautiful 'scopes...and I've been looking at the moon for forty years and still never tire of it. 🔭
    About ten or so hours after a first quarter moon, the terminator (the boundary between night and day) creeps forward and begins to hit the slopes of the crater Copernicus. And if you happen to be watching at just the right time... the sunlight strikes the central peak of Copernicus, which is higher than the surrounding crater walls, brilliantly illuminating it...while the interior of the crater remains dark.
    It's like you're looking at a pool of ink...with a gleaming diamond in the very center of the pool.

    Lunar crater reversal is an interesting phenomena . Scott's Polar expedition in the early 20th Century had trouble seeing footprints ahead of them as indentations in the snow but instead saw raised mounds they avoided in case they tripped. This was when a low Sun cast shadows in a certain direction. Walking in the other direction they had no problems seeing the footprints as the indentations they were. Another useless litte fun fact.

    When I was a little child, children were often told the moon was made of green cheese. One night I was out with my Dad, we took some time to examine and admire the sky. The moon was the object of my attention. After some thought I ask, "Dad, if the moon is made of green cheese why is it grey." He looked at the moon for a moment then said, "It was green when I was young, but now the moon is so old it is covered with mold." As I was still young enough to be awed by such wise wisdom I was very much impressed.

      • How exactly would you describe what the moon is made of to a little child?
      • Do you also think it is poisoning a child's mind for them to watch cartoons or children's programing?
      • How about children having imaginary friends?
      I'm sure it will be amusing to hear your insight or lack there of on my questions.
      But don't worry my mind wasn't poisoned. I'm a retired medical professional. That means I'm college educated in the field of human anatomy, physiology and mental health. As well for hobbies I'm interested in astronomy, geology, phytomedicine.
      As I became an older child I felt rather grownup when I knew "grown-up" answers to my questions. The childhood answers became fond memories as I realized that as a little child the technical and scientific answers were beyond what a child should be burdened with.
