Mosaic of the Moon

The Full Moon as seen from the Stocker AstroScience Center over the MMC Campus at Florida International University on 9/14/2016. The mosaic is made up of nine individual images through an ultraviolet filter using the Finger Lakes CCD attached to the ACE 24" telescope. Ten images of each individual location on the Moon were analyzed and the sharpest ones were used for the mosaic. The images were taken and fit together by Dr. Webb.

 

SPOW is sponsored by a grant from Orbital ATK corporation. Most images presented here were made from the FIU campus using the Astronomical Consultants and Equipment (ACE) 24" automated telescope and the Fingerlakes MaxCam CCD camera through RGBL or UBVRI filters.
