Astronomy and Space Science from the Moon
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The Moon is a premier site for astronomy, solar system studies and space science. This volume contains papers which assess the interest of the Moon for conducting astronomy, solar system observations and space science. The lunar vacuum allows a complete opening of the electromagnetic window and distortion-free measurements at the highest angular resolution, precision and temporal stability. The Moon is also perfect for continuous monitoring of the Sun, solar system targets, and for deep observations of galactic and extragalactic objects, and is an unique in situ laboratory for selenophysics, chemistry and exobiology. It contains useful resources and is accessible from Earth for installation, operations maintenance, robotic and human activities. The contents of this volume are divided into eight sections in which current ideas are reviewed and specific proposals or related activities are highlighted.
