	Moon - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The subject of the moon may be treated as twofold, one' branch being concerned with the aspects, phases and constitution of the moon; the other with the mathematical theory of its motion.
		It is found that the direction of the moon's equator remains nearly invariable with respect to the plane of the orbit, and therefore revolves with that plane in a nodal period of 18.6 years.
		The orbit of the moon around the earth, though not a fixed curve of any class, is elliptical in form, and may be represented by an ellipse which is constantly changing its form and position, and has the earth in one of its foci.

	The Moon: K-12 Experiments & Background
		The gravitational attraction that the Moon exerts on Earth is the cause of tides in the sea.
		The tidal bulges on Earth, caused by the Moon's gravity, are carried ahead of the apparent position of the Moon by the Earth's rotation, in part because of the friction of the water as it slides over the ocean bottom and into or out of bays and estuaries.
		The points where the Moon's orbit crosses the ecliptic are called the "lunar nodes": the North (or ascending) node is where the Moon crosses to the North of the ecliptic; the South (or descending) node where it crosses to the South.

	Wilhelm Beer Biography
		Wilhelm Wolff Beer (January 14, 1797 — March 27, 1850) was a banker in Berlin, Germany and brother of Giacomo Meyerbeer.
		Together with Johann Heinrich Mädler he produced the first exact map of the Moon in 1834-1836 (Mappa Selenographica) and in 1837 a description of the moon (Der Mond nach seinen kosmischen und individuellen Verhältnissen).
		Beer and Mädler showed 1830 the first globe of the planet Mars.

		The crater is 107 km in diameter and is centered at 9.7 N, 20.1 W. In the foreground is Mare Imbrium, peppered with secondary crater chains and elongated craters due to the Copernicus impact.
		The large crater near the center of the image is the 20 km diameter Pytheas, at 20.5 N, 20.6 W. At the upper edge of Mare Imbrium are mountains (Montes Carpatus) produced by the Imbrium impact.
		The crater is centered near the middle of the image and stretches over half the width of the frame but is barely visible due to more recent impact activity since it was formed.

	Appendix A
		They proposed that the moon had accreted from gas and dust elsewhere in the solar system, was later captured by the earth at a close distance, and then moved out to its present radius from the radius of first capture.
		More plausible than the Darwinian postulate, this theory also held the moon to be a primary body in the solar system, rather than a chunk of the earth's mantle, and it attracted many planetologists who hoped to find undisturbed on the moon clues to the formation of the solar system.
		The closeup pictures of the moon taken by Rangers 7, 8, and 9 could be and were appropriated to support each of the theories of the surface morphology, sharply escalating the scientific debate.

		However, the Moon's orbit has a degree of eccentricity, ranging from 356,410 kilometers to 406,697 kilometers, exposing the east and west edges of the lunar farside during different parts of the Moon's orbit.
		The composition of the Moon is broadly similar to that of the Earth, but it is geologically inactive, with a small plastic core maybe 680 kilometers across, a deep solid mantle, and a relatively thin crust.
		Early theories of the formation of the Moon suggested a number of scenarios: that it formed elsewhere and was captured by the Earth; that it and the Earth were formed together; and that it was split off from the Earth in the distant past.

	intro (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Scientists of the era argued that while the large majority of lunar craters were circular, impact crater shape was a sensitive function of the angle of impact.
		Preparation for the Moon landings saw the integration of the various facets of impact studies and the recognition of impact cratering as scientific field in itself.
		Today, understanding of impact cratering comes from a diverse concert of geological and geophysical investigations of terrestrial impact structures; small-scale experimental and high-energy explosion crater studies; morphometric studies of craters on other planets and moons; and numerical and analytical modelling.

	Apollo 17 Summary
		The moon does have quakes, but they are relatively infrequent and, a lunar gravity-wave detection coupled with a nearly simultaneous detection by instruments on Earth would have been a momentous event.
		As mentioned previously, in a cratering event the ejecta is laid down as an overturned blanket; and the presence of the orange soil near the rim indicates either that it was dug up from nearly the deepest point of penetration or that it was injected into a rim fracture by the force of the impact.
		Unlike the frustrations of Ballet Crater and the excitement of Shorty, the mood of Van Serg was one of puzzlement.

		His map clearly shows and locates craters 1,3 and 5, but crater 4 is mis-located, and the topmost of his craters either does not exist or is number 6, grossly misplaced.
		Comparison of Pickering’s estimates of the diameters of the five largest craters with my measurements on the high resolution Orbiter IV frame, H 127 reveal that except for the largest crater, he underestimated crater sizes by 60 to 100 percent.
		In general, reports of the appearance and disappearance of small craters (all at the limits of detectability) and changes of the light spots almost certainly are fictitious.

	Lunar timeline 1700-1899 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Perhaps his most modern comment was that the large circular maria were identical in character to the somewhat smaller lunar craters, thus all were part of a sequence.
		Although he believed his observations supported a volcanic origin for craters, he made many other perceptive and correct inferences such as noting that the Rook Mountains on the west limb of the Moon marked the rim a giant farside crater several hundred miles across - a pre-discovery of the Orientale basin!
		Golbert recognized that lunar craters were of impact origin and that the circular maria were within giant craters.

		The traditional western view of the moon was generated by the Greek philosopher Aristotle and then later adopted by the Catholic church.
		Light would vanish instantaneously off the craters mountain peaks of the Moon when waxing and waning and this was a great method of simultaneous time-keeping at different parts of the world.
		He observed areas of the Moon and used shadow lengths to calculate the heights of mountains and the depths of craters.

		The asteroid sliced many kilometres deep into the Moon's crust and the almighty explosion that ensued blasted out a giant crater, nearly a hundred kilometres wide, gouged out of solid rock within the space of a few minutes.
		One of the most realistic of the 17th century's Moon maps was drawn by Jean Cassini and engraved by Claude Mellan (who was 82 years old), and shows all the lunar features being illuminated from the west.
		The crater's floor lies 3,760 metres beneath the crater's mountainous rim, and through a 150 mm reflector at high powers the floor's southern half can be seen to be hillier than the north.

		"These moons of Jupiter are, in their own right, planets," said Thomas McCord, a professor of planetary science at the University of Hawaii.
		McCord said Ganymede is one of the three moons of Jupiter that have ice.
		Taken together, the three moons present what McCord called "an evolution" from a nearly solid orb (Callisto, the farthest out from Jupiter) to a more "sophisticated" water-filled moon (Europa, the closest to Jupiter).

		It is typical of the small, raised-rim craters seen on the Moon and is notable as having been once named as a subsidiary of a crater less than half its diameter, the tiny Linné.
