In light of our quest to return to the Moon…..

In early celebration of the 40 year anniversary of Apollo 11, and the impending launch of LRO on Thursday, June 18

I made this image at 9:30 AM today.

Nikon Coolpix 5000  ( a whole whopping 5 megapixels! )

ISO  100

1/60  @ f/2.8  on the basic capture mode with NR enabled

I hand held the camera up to my 3″ refractor, (an older model Japan made Celestron)

with a 15mm Celestron eyepiece

tweaked levels and converted to black/white in PS
