9 Why Astronomy from the Moon? Mechanical stability / stable platform can point and track precisely High vacuum, no atmospheric absorption or scattering Farside free of Radio Frequency Interference Constant, uninhibited observation (except for Sun and Earth) Extremely long life no expendable gases, gyro wear, etc. Real time control possible - light travel <3 second round trip A lunar observatory is expandable (interferometry) Low mission cost now possible thru private space enterprise Infinite single point observation at Poles, depth unmatched And much more Many advantages of astronomy from the Moon are well known. There are no fundamental or engineering problems in sending a robotic mission to the Moon. It has been done many times before using much older technology
10 Primary and Secondary ILO Mission Objectives: Initial landing site observation, local surveillance Search for Earth-like planets Analyze interstellar molecules to determine origin of Solar System Search for dangerous NEOs Image Galactic Center Earth observations: geocorona, etc. Solar observations, solar storm warnings Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Observe signs of life on Mars, Europa, Titan, etc. More
11 Lunar Commercial Communications: The International Lunar Observatory requires communications capacity to transmit astrophysical data to satisfy its primary mission. Bandwidth not utilized for astrophysical data transmission can be made available on a commercial basis. Commercial Usage of Additional Bandwidth Pre-sold Bandwidth Bandwidth Available Upon Emplacement (May be pre-sold when launch date set) Future Need Lunar Enterprise Daily This lunar news daily will be transmitted from the Moon. Advertisers will pay a premium rate for transmission of their ads from the lunar surface. Internet Search Engine Giants search engine giants, such as Google and Yahoo, as well as other internet businesses, will be able to purchase bandwidth and use it to provide special services from the lunar surface, which might include local imagery. Interactive games may be developed which actually take place on the Moon. Specialty Advertising Opportunities Large corporations will be able to use a Moon system to capture the attention and interest of consumers for products which may relate to any of the numerous associations modern culture attributes to Luna. In Situ Communications and Monitoring Capabilities for Robotic Project Operators As the wave of robotic and mining/excavation missions arrive on the lunar surface, they will do so with the knowledge that communications and surface monitoring capabilities in the region of Malapert Mountain and Shackleton Crater will be in place and available for purchase.

Telescopes A Warm Up Exercise If we measure the wavelengths of emission lines and absorption lines from the same gas, we find that (ignoring any Doppler shifts) a) Some emission lines shift to the red
Light and Telescopes
Light and Telescopes The key thing to note is that light and matter interact. This can happen in four principal ways: 1) emission a hot object such as the filament in a light bulb emits visible light 2)
