Moon Phase Maps -Reviews

 “On the low-tech front, we found the laminated Moon Phase Maps …. to be a great aid at the telescope”      - Sky and Telescope Hot Products Jan 03

"Just tried out the moon phase maps which were mentioned in the Sky and Telescope Hot Products for this year. These maps are great because they give a day-by-day photographic view of the moon with the
prominent features on the terminator marked. Although the maps are "upside down" for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere and they are backwards for those of us with mirror diagonal telescopes like the ETX, they are surprisingly easy to use. I've tried various moon maps and the famous Hatfield Photographic Lunar atlas, but find these phase maps the best so far."                                - Thomas Brown

“The charts themselves are very pleasing to the eye… Astrovisuals is to be congratulated for combining the skills of these talented people in what is surely the must-have tool for observing the moon…. I heartily recommend it...”
