Harold McAleer took this photo of the waxing moon over Lincoln. The dot near the center is the Copernicus crater, while the large dark circle above it is Mare Imbrium (Sea of Rains). Ranging to the right of that are Mare Serenitatus (Sea of Serenity), Mare Tranquillitatus (Sea of Tranquility, where the Apollo 11 astronauts landed, though Harold’a camera is not up to the task of revealing the lunar module), Mare Foecunditatus (Sea of Fertility), and (above right) Mare Crisium (Sea of Crises).
