Endeavour telescopes snag first ultraviolet moon shots
Houston AP reports astronauts using the Endeavour shuttle and its seven crew members succeeded in capturing 12 ultraviolet images of the waxing moon during a 15 and a half day stargazing mission. Astronomer Randy Gladstone of the Southwest Research Institute notes the Moon is extremely bright and moves quickly relative to the telescope, making alignment difficult but promising. The team hopes the ultraviolet photos will reveal details normally blocked by Earth's atmosphere, with final results pending completion of the mission.

Moon Ultraviolet Scattering Study With Apollo Links
Astronauts used spectroscopes to study sunlight reflecting from the moon but did not capture images in the invisible far ultraviolet. Researchers, including Randy Gladstone, plan to test ultraviolet surface brightness as a clock for exposure age and to extend remote sensing ideas to Mercury and asteroids. The shuttle instruments will target the near full moon on Tuesday and Thursday for the observations.
