ciel featuring art work by Michel Deconinck, a wonderful lunar sketcher whose
work is featured in this issue. Darryl Wilson provides two articles on imaging
the Moon in color, with interesting interpretations of the images. This series
of articles should carry on for some time. Robert. H. Hays, Jr. provided a
wonderful sketch and write up of the concentric crater Hesiodus A. Alberto
Anunziato explored areas of the Moon with telescope sketch and lunar orbiters.
The Focus-On article, a bimonthly series, features the Two Faces of Stevinus
and Snellius by Alberto Anunziato. The drawings and images from across the
world in support of this is remarkable! Tony Cook provided another
insightful article in the Lunar Geologic Change Program. Thanks to all who
contributed to this and every issue.
