The Moon is the best object to observe the first time you go

out at night. Pick a night when the Moon is a crescent. No

shadows are seen during a full Moon, making it appear flat

and uninteresting. Look for different features on the Moon.

The most obvious features are craters. In fact you can see

craters within craters. Some craters have bright lines about

them. These are called rays and are the result of material

thrown out of the crater when it was struck by a colliding

object. The dark areas on the Moon are called maria and

are composed of lava from the period when the Moon still

had volcanic activity. You can also see mountain ranges and

fault lines on the Moon.
