	Astronomical Research - Annual Report 2001 of The Vatican Observatory
		Since the early 1970s our understanding of lunar formation has been dominated by the magma ocean model, that is, that the early Moon started with a layer 400 km thick of completely molten rock, whose stratified freezing gave rise to the different rock types seen in the samples returned by the Apollo mission.
		But data from the recent lunar orbiters indicate that the average crustal composition of the Moon is significantly different from the composition of the limited Apollo samples on which the magma ocean hypothesis was based.
		Lunar anorthosites may have formed over too long a period to be consistent with a rapidly chilled crust.

		Much of the old, cratered terrain, particularly in the equatorial regions, is dissected by channels of some type, the most common of which is the simple gully, typically a few tens of kilometers long.
		The channels are concentrated on crater rims and tend to be approximately parallel, a few tens of kilometers long, with few tributaries.
		Flow was from the south and apparently diverged around obstacles such as craters and low hills to form a sharp prow upstream and an elongate tail downstream.

		Crater diameters on the Moon range from centimeters to several hundred kilometers.
		Most craters on bodies such as the Moon are formed by the impact of solid bodies, such as asteroids.
		Rays are debris "splashed" out of the crater by the impact that formed it.

		These opaque, dark knots of gas and dust are called "Bok globules," and they are absorbing light in the center of the nearby emission nebula and star-forming region, NGC 281.
		Bok hypothesized that giant molecular clouds, on the order of hundreds of light-years in size, can become perturbed and form small pockets where the dust and gas are highly concentrated.
		The Bok globules in NGC 281 are located very close to the center of the IC 1590 cluster.

		Lunar dust is different: "It's almost like fragments of glass or coral--odd shapes that are very sharp and interlocking," says Metzger.
		Lunar ice, on the other hand, is localized near the Moon's north and south poles deep inside craters where the Sun never shines, according to similar data from Lunar Prospector and Clementine, two spacecraft that mapped the Moon in the mid- 1990s.

		Shoemaker-Levy 9 provided the final bit of evidence: mysterious strings of craters on our moon and elsewhere are now recognized as having been created by similar comets or asteroids that broke up before impact.
		As an advisor to NASA and trainer of astronauts in basic geology, Shoemaker was in the thick of the moon missions, but, as Levy describes, was exhausted by his work on them and in the 1970s returned to the study of cosmic collisions.
		The day after his death I heard of the idea to include some of his ashes on the Lunar Prospector satellite that was soon to launch, orbit, and eventually crash on the moon.

		The main purpose of the work of this team is a permanent-so far as possible-watching of the moon, with the aim of detecting and proclaiming quickly any ``transient lunar phenomena" to other colleagues.
		But as Gerard Kuiper, director of the lunar and planetary lab at University of Arizona, acknowledged, infinity is a metaphysical concept that man's present consciousness cannot grasp.
		Bok and Dr. Kuiper agree it would be "silly" not to expect there is intelligent life on other planets, though perhaps not, in our solar system.

	Battle of Maxia - Memory Alpha - A Wikia wiki
		The Battle of Maxia was the unofficial name of a confrontation that took place in the Maxia Zeta system in 2355, in which the Federation starship USS Stargazer, under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, was attacked by a Ferengi vessel, commanded by the son of DaiMon Bok.
		This ship later turned out to be a Ferengi vessel that may have been hiding within a deep lunar crater and was launched from said moon, though scans indicated no launch complex.
		The starship was eventually recovered by Bok, and used in his scheme to seek revenge against Picard, as well as to discredit the role of the "Hero of Maxia" in the Battle of Maxia with falsified logs claiming that Picard had been the one to attack the Ferengi ship without provocation.

	Stargazer MMIII No. 9
		Lunar maria -- dark areas that can be seen with the naked eye -- have been accumulating craters from NEA impacts since their formation more than 3 billion years ago.
		Because current NEA population matches the crater counts from the lunar maria, the NEA population has been roughly in equilibrium for billions of years.
		In other words, new asteroids are introduced into near-Earth space at around the same rate that old NEAs are destroyed by collisions with the planets and the sun or are ejected from the solar system.

		But I was fascinated by watching the moons of Jupiter as they circled around the planet casting their shadows occasionally on the disk, the craters and mountains on the moon, Saturn's rings, and the nebulae.' (Seabrook p20) Wood received a B.A. in chemistry and natural history from Harvard in 1891.
		He photographed landscapes, and especially the moon using his filter, using three minute exposures and finding lunar features that were not apparent in visual light, such as a large area near the crater Aristarchus that is fl in UV but barely visible in yellow light.
		A refueling stop on the moon was illustrated by Wood using a series of photographs of models he made of lunar craters (with cutout photos of ocean divers in pressure suits), the distant earth painted on a ball, the ray gun exploding the asteroid, with backdrops of a fl sky with stars.

		Their names are memorably linked to Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, which they discovered in 1993 and which captured worldwide attention when 21 fragments of it crashed into Jupiter in July of 1994.
		Eugene M. Shoemaker, who died in an automobile accident in 1997, was a geologist who spent much of his career studying impact craters on the moon and Earth.
		And his wish to go to the moon, thwarted by his health, was fulfilled when the spacecraft Lunar Prospector, carrying one ounce of his ashes, crashed onto the lunar surface five years to the week after the last traces of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 disappeared.

		And, in the lower left of the image, astronomers have identified two tadpole-shaped "emission nebulae," which are thought to be gas and dust from protoplanetary disks.
		Accurate profiles of the lunar terrain are important because they help scientists interpret solar eclipses and address issues like the constancy of the sun's diameter and its long-term energy output.
		Erich Karkoschka, a researcher at the Lunar and Planetary Lab of The University of Arizona in Tucson, made the discovery.

		Comet showers (and their accompanying water-rich dust) may be important sources of volatiles for the planets, and the known lunar and terrestrial cratering rates may allow us to constrain the population of the inner Oort Cloud.
		Our project to determine the isotopic composition of Cr in the sun, through solar wind trapped in lunar soils, is also entering the fruit-bearing stage: We have done the etches on size- and mineral-separated fractions of two 50-gram soil samples, and mass spectrometric analyses are beginning.
		This work is expected to provide a definitive resolution of hypotheses competing to explain the so-called "radial gradient" in the abundance of 54Cr, which is often taken to represent radical heterogeneity in the distribution of the short-lived radionuclide 53Mn.

		Lingering Lunar Eclipse (Large version) Credit and Copyright: Noel Munford (Palmerston North Astronomical Society, New Zealand) Explanation: As the Moon passed almost directly through the center of Earth's shadow on July 16th, sky gazers in the Pacific hemisphere were graced by a lingering lunar eclipse.
		Haunting red hues of diminished moonlight, common during the total phase of a lunar eclipse, are evident at the far right, along the slimmer portion of the trail.
		Recent observations of dust-darkened Bok Globule BHR 71, however, show evidence for two young stars forming deep in the cloud, likely close enough to form a binary.
