Everything was bigger in Brooklyn back then: our loves, our fears, the future. When the moon looked close enough to touch, we laced old sneakers together and threw them high, trying to hit the lunar surface. They never did, just ended up dangling on streetlights. The moon is smaller now, like our lives. But the sneakers are still there, a constant reminder of our old dreams. An invitation to try again.

Unfortunately, I lost access to my balcony as my building is currently being renovated. This should last until early next year. In the meantime, here's a shot of the full Moon through the safety nets on the scaffoldings.

Full Moon through Scaffoldings
Unfortunately, I lost access to my balcony as my building is currently being renovated. This is why I haven't posted in a while. There have been scaffoldings around the building since March. This should last until early next year. In the meantime, here's a shot of the full Moon through the safety nets on the scaffoldings.

The inset at top right of the previous map shows white boxes where hyperspectral observations were taken. Boxes with more than one observation number were repeat observations, and they allowed some study of changes in water concentration (VERY low) over time.

Time to put everything together for Chang'e 6. Here is a map of the immediate area of the lander. I need to confirm the location of the drill. The Lunar Mineralogy Spectrometer (LMS) did multispectral mapping of the sampling area to help find a good place to scoop. Some parts were looked at in more bands (hyperspectral), observing traces of water (top right inset). The rover route is mapped but I am still waiting for a formal paper on it for details.
