Craters!
CRASH! BANG! BOOM!
Craters, craters everywhere! The entire solar system shows evidence of impacts of objects from space, so it’s only fitting to see that evidence in a Pulsar! Above NASA images are of the Moon, Mars, Mercury, and Miranda.


Hi Gang!  There were just too many “hints” from the list server that I should focus this issue on the leftovers from cosmic billiards for me to ignore. So, here it is! Lots of great art tips for painting craters. Enjoy!

Jon!

Astronomical Feature of the Month: Lunar Craters


Shepherd Moons

Shepherd Moons by Joe Bergeron

The weirdly braided F-ring of Saturn is confined by two tiny "shepherd" moons which orbit just on either side of it. Published by Time-Life Books in their Voyage Through the Universe series.
