Image of the Month - July 2020

That's no (normal) Moon, its a mosaic! 

JingyuanZhao submitted this amazing mosaic of multiple Moon observations, stitched together with great care and attention. If you compare it to other Moon observations, you will see much more of the lunar surface than normal.

To create this image yourself, you will need to get neighbouring observations and use a graphics programme to line them up to create one larger image. This is exactly how we created our Moonsaic activity.
