Howdy!
Does anyone out there have or know of where I can locate a decent moon map?
Thanks…Kev
Kevin,
I haven't tried this yet, but it may help. When I asked about a moon map a
while back, someone suggested going into the PHOTO forum. There are supposedly
a number of different night and day shots of the moon to be had. Then make your
own maps from the photos. If you DO get any answers, let me know, I have a few
day shots in WCT, but no good night shots.

Kevin,
There are a few programs made by VRLI that lets you see the surface detail of
the moon, mars and a few other planets. You can take snapshots of these, save
em as gifs, and use them as bump/texture maps. That's how I make all of my
planet mapping.

You know what I find works really well? Sitting on a Xerox machine! You get
great detail, but it's only greyscale. (And in my case, I have to use tabloid
sized paper.) <BG>

National Geographic did a poster-size moon map, I think in the mid-70s. You
might contact them to see if it's still available.
Hiss!! Booo!!!!
No, No, No!!! He said he wanted the Moon, not Uranus!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Kevin,
Are you on the internet? If so Try some of the NASA sites. I found many
images of space, planets, etc. @ these various sites. You can do a net search
from within Netscape to get a list of possible sites. Good luck….<jir>
