Wesley,

I continue to be amazed at the quality
of your lunar images. The resolution
in this image may be better than 0.15"
-- amazing! Gassendi is one my favorite
targets. Keep it up!

Sometimes, when I look at the moon, the craters seem to bulge outward. An illusion of course. Your crater looks like an outty.

Wes,

A fantastic image of Gassendi showing the complex rille system over it's floor. This is one of the best images of this crater that I have seen to date. I look forward to your future images.
