Details
"Photographic Atlas of the Moon" by Robert Reeves is a astronomy book and space science reference focused on Deep Sky & Solar System. Best for students, researchers, and serious astronomy enthusiasts.
"Photographic Atlas of the Moon explains how the Earth and the Moon are locked together in a co-dependent embrace, each affecting the other in ways that affect our lives on this planet. The reader will learn in an understandable jargon-free narrative the differing geologic details of the Moon, some of which can be seen with the naked eye, allowing an appreciation of the diversity of lunar landforms. Although the author is an accomplished deep sky astrophotographer, his current passion is re-popularizing the Moon within the amateur astronomy community by explaining the origin of the Moon, the evolution of its face, and introducing its geology to Moon lovers everywhere. Robert has perfected image processing techniques that allow the amateur astronomer, using modest equipment, to exceed the quality of Earth-based professional lunar photographs taken during the Apollo era. In addition to a complete photographic guide to the surface of the Moon in 32 distinct regions, sections of this book include: The Moon We See (Phases, Libration, Eclipses), the Moon's Orbit, the Moon's Surface (creation, age, composition and appearance), the Geology of the Moon and more"--
