Lunar observers and photographers (and illustrators - selenographers)
An alphabetic list compiled by Danny Caes and members/ visitors of the Lunar Photo of the Day (LPOD) site and the Moon-Wiki project
Note: the names of the 24 Apollo astronauts who explored the moon are also included in the list because they saw and photographed the moon REALLY close-up!
It should be mentioned that the chapter THE MOON in T.W.Webb's CELESTIAL OBJECTS FOR COMMON TELESCOPES (Volume 1: The Solar System) contains a large number of less-known (say: unknown) moon observers. The search for these names could be an interesting summer project! (july 2015). - DannyCaes Jun 13, 2015
