Museum of the Moon

[munirocks]

I've just seen the travelling Museum of the Moon exhibition in Leicester, and I highly recommend it. It's a high resolution 7 metre diameter 3D model of the moon that you can walk around, and it's simply gobsmacking. I took along my Vixen 2.1 x 42 super-wide angle binoculars, and Pentax Papilio 6.5 x 21 close-focussing binoculars and spent hours looking it over - great views of both near side and far side. I think it's in Leicester for another week, and in Glasgow for an extended period starting some time in May. If you're into lunar observation you'd be crazy to miss it.

Thanks @munirocks, I visited it today. Long trip but glad I went!

It was the last day of the exhibition so it was pretty busy. Nice to see so much interest. Richard III's tomb was also excellent.
