On the reverse side of the map, there are close-up photos and information about the most exciting lunar regions to explore. You’ll also find images of the North and South polar regions for reference. Refer to the lunar observing tips for practical information about using your telescope or binoculars to explore the Moon.
The Observer's Map of the Moon is waterproof, tear-resistant, and can be folded into an 8” x 4” size, making it easy to take along on your next camping trip, star party, or evening in your backyard.

Love to look at the map and see the names of all of the features on the moon.

I've had other moon maps and moon atlases. It seems that every one is good in some sense, but every other one so far has had some useless or annoying feature -- like large print right across the feature you want to identify. As maps of the moon go, this is the best I've seen. Print is small, and does not obscure the crater, ridge, valley, whatever you're looking for.This is a large map -- not something you can easily use during an observing session. I mounted mine on a cardboard backing so it lies flat instead of trying to roll itself up when you're trying to use it.It's the best I've seen, ever, yet.

Una vez que lo abres, para lo cual hay que romper el sobre exterior, me sorprendió negativamente. La calidad del papel es muy baja, está doblado de forma que en seguida estara en mal estado, no tiene un estuche o sobre para guardarlo en condiciones teniendo en cuenta su uso al aire libre. El contenido del mapa en sí no está mal, es detallado y es funcional.

I scoured the internet looking for maps of the moon so I could mark points of interest that I wanted to see with my telescope. Most of them were small, illegible, and even inaccurate.Celestron has a really great reputation so I figured I’d give this map a try and it did not disappoint. When unfolded, it’s a fairly large map with a great amount of information and detail. All the mares and craters are clearly labeled and there are brief descriptions about them. It even shows where each of the Apollo missions are even though they are extremely hard to see unless you have a fairly powerful telescope.This map is a must have for any astrophotography hobbyist or if you just want to learn more about our neighbor in the sky‼️

This is very good moon map and suitable to frame but the majority of the information is on the back side.

Very nice 24"x24" picture of the moon's surface on one side, relatively informative highlights of 'Tourist" spots on the back. But...My complaints:1) Most of the crater names on the big picture are microscopic and in black, SO, it is very hard to read in a darkened/shadowed area of the surface.2) For whatever reason I thought it would be laminated, however, it is made from Hop-Syn which is a white, opaque, tear-resistant synthetic paper made from a unique mixture of calcium carbonate and polypropylene resin (From the Hop-Syn website:-). It seems durable, but I don't plan on subjecting it to the "Rip Test."Overall I like it, but couldn't give it five stars because of the aforementioned issues.

I used this chart while observing the crescent Moon at high magnification. Once I figured out how to translate the image in the eyepiece to the chart, I was able to confidently identify the various craters, maria, etc. Very helpful product for learning the Moon.

It’s a good map. The main image is nice and I especially appreciate that the list of features is on the same side. My friend has a lunar map with the list on the back and it is a pain to keep flipping over when you are out observing. The paper seems to be fairly durable and tear resistant like they intend for this to actually be used. But it is still kind of thin and I’m worried it will get destroyed over time.
