Astronomy and Space Science When you observe the moon floating in the night sky, you can see several patterns on the surface of the moon, that is, the moon surface. These patterns are landforms such as craters, seas, hills, and domes, but it is possible to observe even more detailed landforms by using astronomical telescopes. In recent years, there have been many lunar exploration projects, such as the landing of JAXA's Small Lunar Landing Demonstration Vehicle (SLIM) on the moon surface and the "Arthemis Project," a lunar exploration project to land human beings on the moon surface. Interest in the moon surface is increasing in the future. In astrophotography photography, in particular, the quality of moon surface photographs has been improved in recent years, and images comparable to those of survey satellites can be obtained. Therefore, in order to make it easier to understand when actually observing the moon using binoculars and astronomical telescopes, this book uses "high-resolution moon surface images" taken with ground-based telescopes to divide the topography of the front side of the moon into moon age groups and spectacular areas, and constructs like a photographic map to enjoy the location and structure of moon landforms (craters, mountains, valleys, etc.) together with the beauty of the images. In addition, in order to make it easier to understand when actually observing the moon using binoculars and astronomical telescopes, this book uses "high-resolution moon surface images" taken with ground-based telescopes to divide the topography of the front side of the moon into moon age groups and spectacular areas. It is composed like a photographic map. You can enjoy the position and structure of moon landforms (craters, mountains, valleys, etc.) together with the beauty of the images. In addition, for individual landforms, explanations such as geological explanations and origins are published. In addition, at the end of the book, explanations are made based on images taken by moon exploration satellites. This book is a commentary on the moon surface from two viewpoints, "astronomy" and "
