The Lure of mapping the far side of the moon
Before her death in 2013 the world-renowned mapmaker of the far side of the Moon must have gazed at the Moon and must have still wondered how she, Kira Shingareva, was able to map that side of the Moon with the primitive instruments of her day, and without robots, and facing the bureaucratic obstacles to find a new way of naming features on the Moon. This book unravels some of the secret dimensions of her bold work. It pulls together the many threads of discovery that seem unrelated to her goal of creating a map based solely on the deeply-frozen craters on the dark side of the Moon.
