| The Lunar 100 is a list of lunar features compiled by Dr. Charles A. 'Chuck' Wood, ordered by increasing difficulty of viewing or imaging. All of them are worth a look anytime, favourable illumination and libation permitting. One of the biggest challenges of lunar imaging is a complete coverage of the Lunar 100. Submit your image to the MAS gallery using the link above or at the bottom of the page. Your image will be annotated with your initials.
