Dirt, Gravity, and Lunar-Based Telescopes: The Value Proposition for Astronomy [PDF]
, 2007 The lunar surface has historically been considered an optimal site for a broad range of astronomical telescopes. That assumption, which has come to be somewhat reflexive, is critically examined in this paper and found to be poorly substantiated. The value of the lunar surface for astronomy may be broadly compelling only in comparison to terrestrial ...

A 600 m2 array of 6.5 m telescopes at the lunar pole. [PDF]
Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng SciThe proposed lunar telescope for optical and infrared astronomy aims at very large aperture, 600 m2, at a fundable cost. It comprises an array of 18 separate telescopes, each of 6.5 m aperture. The 200 m diameter array will be located within 1/2° (15 km)

Lunar Observation Support System Using Smartphone AR for Astronomy Education
International Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies (iJIM), 2014 It is possible to improve learnersâ?? understanding of the concept of lunar phases by using Observation based Learning (OBL). In this research, Smartphone Augmented Reality (AR) technology was used to develop a multi-viewpoint AR-based mobile learning (M-VARML) system for moon observation that can be used in the real world environment.

Contemporary Haqiqī Calculation: Analysis of Rinto Anugraha's Lunar Eclipse Calculation Methods
Journal of Islamic Law, 2022 Classical Islamic astronomy literature that discusses eclipse calculations still uses the ḥaqiqī bi al-taqrīb method with low accuracy. In its development, Islamic astronomical literature studies the calculation of lunar eclipses with high accuracy ...

Detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays and neutrinos with lunar orbital radio telescope
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 Particle cascades induced by ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic rays and neutrinos impacting on the lunar regolith usually radiate Cherenkov radio emissions due to the presence of excess negative charge, which is known as Askaryan effect. Several experiments

A review of studies on mass-movements on the Moon
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 The study of the lunar surface is a significant field in exploring the Moon. As a non-negligible geological process shaping the lunar surface, however, the mass movements on the Moon have not been deeply studied regarding all available datasets.
