I have both Field Maps of the Moon. This one is as you see
the moon with binoculars and the other is "mirror image" for
telescopes. Both are excellent, high quality maps that are
laminated to keep off dew. The illustration of the moon is
superb and the map folds in four quadrants for easy handling
and space saving in the field. Directions on how to use the
map and hundreds of features are listed with their coordinates
so you can easily find them.
An excellent tool for moon lovers.

Both versions of this map are drawn by Antonin Rukl whose Atlas of the Moon in book form is currently the gold standard for readily available paper lunar atlases. While the scale is smaller here, the amount of detail will be sufficient for the vast majority of telescopic observers.
But what distinguishes these maps is how well they're designed. Laminated, folding in quarters and just about the perfect size, it's plain that Sky Publishing meant these to be practical and rugged.
Also, two very nice touches. The lunar surface features are repeated where the map folds so no details are lost "in the ditch". And each map quadrant shows the libration zones.
This map is excellent.

This map is laminated to protect it from dew, which makes it ideal for field use while observing. It has a large format, yet it folds into quarters, which makes it easier to carry and use while observing. While not as detailed as a lunar atlas, it's a good choice for new amateur astronomers, teachers, or anybody who is interested in the moon, and space.

I find Sky and Telescope's Field Map of the Moon quite useful. It has hundreds of features and lunar coordinates identified on a size and in colors that are legible in red light. Read more
