Sky and Telescope Folding Field Map of the Moon
Reviewer: Matt Wedel
This map is extremely well though out.
It folds in fourths, so you can get it
down to one-hand size and still make out
most of the features you might want to
observe at one time. Each quarter of the
map covers a bit more than a fourth of
the moon, so the features on the lunar
equator and meridian don't get lost in
the folds. The contrast on the lunar
features and text is great and easy to
make out with the ubiquitous dim red
flashlight.
A lot of amateur astronomers carp about
the moon spoiling their DSO views. I
like going back and forth, depending on
what's up and what's bright. Arm
yourself with one of these and you might
discover--or rediscover--the moon too.
