Philip's Moonwatch

This pack for the amateur moonwatcher contains three items to help the beginner learn his or her way around the natural satellite. A practical guide for moonwatchers features a day-by-day diary based on the progress of the terminator (the boundary of light and darkness at each phase of the moon). It also offers clear advice on choosing and using equipment, methods of recording observations and recording eclipses. The pack contains a large-format map of the near-side of the moon, drawn by Dr John Murrat - a research lecturer at the Opn University. More than 500 physical features are labelled and indexed. The map is accompanied by a guide to lunar observing with drawings and photographs. A map of the far side of the moon is also included. An A1 size moon poster features a series of photographs of the moon as it passes through its phases during the course of a month. These images were taken by H.J.P. Arnold - a highly respected astrophotographer.
