=Mysterious Universe; a handbook of astronomical anomalies=
 The Sourcebook Project, 1979<br />  William R. Corliss<br />  701 pages<br /> <br />  Of all the interesting chapters in this book, the 6th chapter ('''THE MOON''') is (for us, of course) the most interesting one.<br />  This chapter has several subdivisions:<br />  - '''Introduction'''<br />  - '''Optical (?) Phenomena in Lunar Observation'''<br /> 
* '''Image Doubling'''
* '''Dark Triangular Patches''' (this optical phenomenon; the dark triangular patch below the Full Moon, observed at sea, is also mentioned in M.G.J.Minnaert's ''Light and Color in the Outdoors'').
* '''Lunar Zodiacal Light and Auroras (?)'''
* '''Projection of Stars on the Lunar Disc''' (this optical phenomenon might be related to the effect of Irradiation, described by M.G.J.Minnaert in his ''Light and Color in the Outdoors'') (the appearance of the moon's "large" bright crescent versus the "small" earthlighted nocturnal part).
* '''Young Moon seen as a Circle''' (is this the same phenomenon observed at Venus before and after a transit across the sun's disc?).
* '''Lunar Sunset Afterglows''' (the phenomenon of possible illuminated dust, hovering above the horizon, visible on photographs made by the Surveyor landers).
- '''Eclipse Phenomena'''<br /> 

* '''Dark and Bright Eclipses'''
* '''Distortions of the Earth's Shadow'''
* '''Light Rays During Solar and Lunar Eclipses'''
* '''Mysteries of Bailey's Beads''' (note: is it Bailey or Baily?) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baily's_beads Baily's Beads]
* '''Color Phenomena'''
- '''Puzzling Lunar Surface Features'''<br /> 

* '''Crater Phenomena'''
* '''Distribution of Lunar Craters'''
* '''The Lunar Channels'''
* '''Lunar Ray Puzzles'''
* '''Peculiar Lunar Terrain'''
- '''Transient Lunar Phenomena (TLPs)'''<br /> 

* '''Lights and Bright Spots'''
* '''Cloud-like Phenomena'''
* '''Lunar Luminescence'''
* '''Lunar Meteors (?)'''
* '''Analyses of TLPs'''
- '''Lunar Physical and Chemical Anomalies'''<br /> 

* '''Glazed Lunar Rocks'''
* '''Lunar Chemistry and Catastrophism'''
* '''The Mascons''' (MASCON: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_concentration_(astronomy) Mass Concentration])
* '''Lunar Thermal Anomalies'''
* '''Concentrations of Radioactivity on the Moon'''
* '''Local Magnetic Fields on the Moon'''
* '''Lunar Seismic Phenomena'''
- '''Lunar Orbital Anomalies'''<br /> <br />  See book review at the lower part of:<br /> http://www.science-frontiers.com/sourcebk.htm<br /> <br />  Also from the Sourcebook Project:<br /> '''The Moon and the Planets: a catalog of astronomical anomalies''' (383 pages)<br /> <br /> 
==Preliminary list of authors in ''Mysterious Universe'', of which their names are officially (or unofficially) incorporated in the nomenclature of lunar surface formations==
 Alter, Antoniadi, Ashbrook, Barnard, Baum (officially known as Sven Hedin E) (or Sven Hedin F), Birt, Brenner, Campbell, Challis, Chant, Denning, Douglass, Draper, Espin, Flammarion, Gaudibert, Haas (officially known as Pico E), Hind, Holden, Keeler, Kozyrev, Lowell, Maunder, Parkhurst, Peek, Perrine, Schaeberle, Steavenson (officially known as Reichenbach A), Swift, Trouvelot, Trumpler, Urey, Van Biesbroeck, Very, Webb, W. H. Pickering (officially known as Messier A), Wilkins, Williams.<br /> <br /> 
==General index of authors mentioned in ''Mysterious Universe'', plus page numbers==
 This alphabetic list is an <u>'''EXPERIMENT'''</u>. The book ''Mysterious Universe'' has no index of the many mentioned authors. The Moon-Wiki Project is perhaps the best place to create that index.<br />  Additional moon-related notes and lunar articles of the chapter '''The Moon''' are mentioned '''BOLD''' (because the moon is the main topic of this page!). All articles of the chapter '''The Environs of Earth''' are also included (also '''BOLD'''), because these articles are (more-or-less) moon-related. Articles by authors mentioned in the list above (lunar IAU nomenclature) are about to be included too (mostly unexpected topics!).<br />  It would be very interesting to add EVERY non-moon related article next to the names of the authors who wrote them. I don't know if it is a good idea to do that. I might become a true nutty person if I really do it all the way to the last author down below, at the '''Z''' (Zook, Herbert A.) <span class="membersnap">- [http://www.wikispaces.com/user/view/DannyCaes [[Image:DannyCaes-lg.jpg|16px|DannyCaes]]] [http://www.wikispaces.com/user/view/DannyCaes DannyCaes] <small>Nov 28, 2014</small></span><br /> <br /> <br />

==About this page==
 This page is compiled by Danny J. Caes (°28-2-1964, Ghent-Belgium). The purpose of this page is: to shed new light on an extremely interesting and fascinating book made in 1979 by William R. Corliss. Perhaps this book is THE most interesting guide for those who want to know and to learn more about the hidden corners of the officially recognized science of astronomy. </div>
