Welcome to http:/www.handsonuniverse.org/activities/Explorations/moon20031010/

Images were taken October 10, 2003 with The Univ. of Chicago Yerkes Observatory Internet Remote Rooftop 10 inch telescope and an SBIG ST9e CCD.  Students from Badger H.S. in Lake Geneva, WI took several images to start the sequence. The students also observed the moon with their own eyes before using the imaging telescope.  Print these images, cut them out, and then mosaic them, overlapping as needed, to see the whole picture of the moon.  Using the HOU-IP software you can open up the original .fts images.
