Nos llena de
orgullo que, tras 70 meses seguidos de observaciones reportadas y aprobadas por
ALPO y publicadas en su revista especializada de temática lunar: “The Lunar
Observer”, América del Sur se ha ganado un lugar de privilegio en la observación
lunar.

Key to Images in this Issue 114 The May issue of The Lunar Observer features a
number of interesting articles by Howard Eskildsen, Robert H. Hays, Jr., Rik
Hill, Alberto Anunziato, John D. Sabia and David Teske. Jerry Hubbell and Alberto Anunziato tackle the Lunar 100
numbers 61-70 with a number of great images, drawings, paints and articles.
Observers from 10 countries contributed to this issue of The Lunar Observer!
Tony Cook keeps us abreast on Lunar Geologic Change, as always with interesting
reports. Take a look at just what is in one lunar image. Howard Eskildsen finds
a “new” concentric crater (page 7). Who knows what you will find! Clear and
steady skies.
