About the Book

This multi-faceted volume provides exquisite detail and unique looks of the Moon as seen through the Apollo J missions the Apollo 15, 16, and 17 Moon landing sojourns designed for longer stays on Earths celestial neighbour, including the first-time humans drove a rover across the lunar surface. As a sequel to his book Apollo on the Moon in Perspective, author Ron Wells uses cutting-edge photogrammetry techniques, providing the reader astounding views of some of the most distinctive features of the Moon seen from angles never before possible. This book includes a multitude of 3D anaglyphs created painstakingly by the author including features from the lunar far side. 3D anaglyph glasses are provided. This glossy book also includes a revealing DVD that includes flybys over many of the lunar features derived from 3D models. There are digital terrain model flybys of 40 lunar locations and a brand-new unique movie. It is narrated by Apollo 17s Harrison Schmitt, describing his flight over the Taurus Littrow valley, the site where he would spend three days as the only scientist to walk on the Moon. This extraordinary volume is dedicated to the unsung heroes of the Apollo lunar landing missions, the Command Module Pilots: Mike Collins, Dick Gordon, Stu Roosa, Al Worden, Ken Mattingly and Ron Evans. While their colleagues were exploring the lunar surface, they maintained their lone vigils in orbit, making scientific observations and imaging the Moon in unprecedented detail while waiting for the moonwalkers to return. As Schmitt writes in the books foreword, underscoring the tenacity of Wells to produce this matchless work, the volume represents the latest culmination of his never-ending search for new knowledge and the means to draw you into that quest with him. Working with him on the last chapter of this book, Colors Across the Moon, was both a pleasure and a stimulation of new thoughts about volcanism on the Moon as well as about the evolution of that small planet.
