This collage I made of old photos I took using phone camera - Nokia N8 and Samsung J5 and telescope.
They are from different phases just to show how it always got the same side, called the near side.
For the observer from the Earth is seems the Moon is not spinning, but actually it does.
The time needed for one spin on its axes is almost the same as to orbit around the Earth. Earth gravity forced the Moon to synchronize the spin with its orbit. The so called far side of the Moon never been seen from Earth. However the Chinese spacecraft landed for the first time on the far side recently.
Last night I took some photos using both the phone camera and the MikrOcular camera and the telescope. I wished to make some comparison between both cameras.
Here are the photos with the phone camera.
And a close-up.
Next photos are made with MikrOcular camera. They all are close-ups.
There is a difference in the quality between both cameras. However I made simple edits with Photoshop Express.
I hope you enjoyed seeing closer the Moon. Any comments are much appreciated.
Thank you for visiting.
