Moon This is my first picture of the Moon taken only with a digital camera: SONY DSC-F828. The image is not very good, because still I am learning the utilities of the camera, and in addition I have reduced too much its size, I think, but I create advisable to insert this image to animate to the companions astronomers to insert its images, although these are not very good. Any image of our universe is interesting. The image was taken with a focal length: 51,0 mm, shutter speed 1/40 sec, aperture F 2,0. The Moon was at 46,8 % Waxing (azimut: 229º SW. elevation: 24,9 º). I hope to obtain better images and to insert them in this section.

Just a quick word to the faithful visitor, now that 10 years have passed since the first “astrotips” page was published on the web, to let know that a major reshuffle of this site is planned to happen somewhere during first quarter 2010. Unused stuff will be dropped and we will stick strictly to the “all and only about software for amateur astronomy” motto while trying to develop a hub in line with expectable “Web 2.5” trimmings. Bear with me.

| Virtual Moon Atlas | | Reviewed by: Wade V. Corbeil | What a tremendious program for the Lunar observer.

Top-notch graphics, completely user-freindly, and more information than a person has a right to know....plus some!
Not only is this program completely customizable, it has one of the largest databases of Lunar objects available: Craters, mountain ranges, Mares, plains, you name it it is there.
You have the option of clicking on the name... read more >> |
