Safe moon mapping software needed

[MrsR]

Can anyone give me a link for some safe moon mapping software - ideally free to download.

I found some links to old stuff but don't want to click on them until I know they are safe and good. Virtual Moon was one I found.

Many thanks.

Virtual Moon Atlas is a great piece of freeware - en:start [Virtual Moon Atlas]

Many thanks

I've been playing with that one for a while, excellent it is!

I'm not a fan of Virtual Moon Atlas, and prefer Lunar Phase Pro - even though it's not free.

Lunar Phase Pro is good IMO - but like a lot of astro software it's not as slick as modern software should be. Nonetheless, it's capable of producing a lot of really useful information to help plan lunar observing sessions.

Thanks for that one Great-bear

Isn't there Google Moon too. Like Google Earth but well...

No - Google Moon is part of Google Earth - You just select "View->Explore->Moon" from the menu.

(it's not really worth the effort! )

But don't forget this:
