Moon map

Hi all,

I am trying to find a good on-line moon map that I can use with my intro to astronomy students. I have tried ordinary maps such as the one that was in Norton's in the past, however the students really get confused (for most of them it is the first time they have ever looked through a telescope) trying to compare the map with the mirror reversed view they get through the telescope!

does anyone know of any mirror-reversed maps available?

Thanks

Maurice

Maurice,

Check out www.inconstantmoon.com; they have a reversed map, as well as a lot of other links and features (and the site plays the Moonlight Sonata for you while you browse).
