Lunar Impact Sites
Has anyone marked these on their map yet? Are any visible with a telescope?

Re: Lunar Impact Sites
I actually meant at the crash sites themselves. Being as how we are suppose to go back to the moon to stay the crash debris might be a valuable resource. Recycling and reusability might take on a whole new meaning.Don Quixote wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2019 8:59 pmAnything left of our minds...? Or anything left in resources to post...? :-)

Hmm. Well, only time will tell if any of it is useful.
It will be interesting if we make it back up there. :-)

Re: Lunar Impact Sites
What I would like to see is a mission to collect samples of each lander to learn how well they have aged in the lunar environment. Future long duration missions might benefit having these as a fifty year old baseline study.
