The highly successful Clementine mission gave scientists their first global look at the Moon. Based on information gathered from this mission combined with data from recent missions, this unique atlas contains 144 maps covering the entire lunar surface, along with colour plates showing the Moon's composition and physical properties. The first part of the atlas describes the origin and geological evolution of the Moon and gives a brief history of lunar science and exploration, while the second features double-page spreads consisting of Clementine images paired with newly created shaded-relief maps generated from LROC topography data. This edition has been fully revised and extended to cover the armada of new missions that have launched since 2004. With one of the most complete and up-to-date lunar nomenclature databases, this is an indispensable reference for professional planetary and space scientists, amateur astronomers, and lunar enthusiasts.

‘… it will most certainly appeal … to serious amateur astronomers with a keen interest in the Moon … undoubtedly the most authoritative source of lunar nomenclature currently available … the atlas is an indispensable reference to lunar surface features (especially on the far side), the geology surrounding features and lunar nomenclature.’

‘A substantial book, intended as a complete reference work for both professionals and the serious amateur. The text throughout is both accessible and non-technical … Technically, the authors have achieved their aim of placing the entire Moon between two covers.'

‘For students of the Moon, this is one of the best photographic lunar atlas reference books, because it covers almost the entire lunar surface (99%) … Overall I highly recommend this book for all lunar observers of all expertise levels.'
