Sky Watch Friday V

Look at the Moon in the Daytime

Apollo 11 Landing site - Sea of Tranquility
(Click on the photo and look for the red dot)

I photographed this in the late afternoon using my Celestron 14" Telescope and a Nikon Point and Shoot camera held at the eyepiece.

I was watching a movie entitled "The Dish" the other day about Apollo 11 and Neil Armstrong being the first to set foot on the Moon, and thought it might be appropriate for Sky Watch.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Australia and the Radio Telescope at Parks for the television images of the first Moon walk. Thank you Australia.

To play SWF visit Wiggers World.
