Re: Apollo Landing Sites Scouted by Hubble

KECK can do better than HST. Hells bells folks, TRACE can do as good as
HST. Since the moon is so nicely illuminated and, because the moon has
only a slight bit of a mostly crystal clear sodium, argon and radon
atmosphere, thus the KECK CCD scan rate can be fairly high, as well as
the applied CCD need not have such a terrific DR to work with.
Therefore the 2.2 micron/pixel CCD can be applied, and stacking can
also be employed along with each pixel reduced to as little as 1% of
it's full coverage, thus technically making the CCD pixel equal to a
0.22 micron. Add another ten power optical magnification and we should
be nearly able to see those foot prints.

The advantage that HST has is that it'll do by far the best earthshine
illuminated moon shots with photons to spare. Of course, since portions
of those Apollo remains should have an albedo of 80+% as otherwise
surrounded by a carbon/soot dirty brown worth of an 11~12% albedo moon
should make for whatever's artificial stand out like a sore thumb.

Kurt Vonnegut would have to agree; WAR is WAR, thus "in war there are
no rules" - In fact, war has been the very reason of having to deal
with the likes of others that haven't been playing by whatever rules,
such as GW Bush.
