"By far the best android moon app I`ve seen for use with a telescope. May replace my Rukl atlas. Suggestions: add the ability to show terminator at dates and times in the future...add librations for terminator accuracy...incorporate USGS Geologic Map of the Moon."

"Good maps. No red light night view option. Pros - Very much like that features are defined geographically by circles. Slider to set the density of labels is terrific. Cons - Apollo landing site labels, 6, are not viewable at full extent of moon view. Must zoom in to become viewable and thus lose spatial relation when viewing full moon. While a very nice app, it is unusable for me without red light night view."

"I loved the lite version, so I purchased the HD version too. No doubt it is amazing! But the main reason for which I purchased the HD version was that I wanted to see the terminator in real time, which comes across as a bland thin outline over the moon in this app...it was a disappointment. I had expected that the terminator would actually divide the moon into night and day halves.. Request the developers to show the exact phase of the moon in real time, that would be amazing!!"

"Excellent lunar map! Good levels of detail and very customizable with regard to the type and density of labels shown. Anyone using a telescope who is interested in identifying features on the Moon will find this very useful. Display can be flipped to match different telescope types. My only criticism is that even though the terminator is clearly shown it would be nice if the unlit side of the Moon could be shown dimmed rather than displayed at the same brightness as the lit side."

"This is great, but in using it I found one thing not working right, and that is the distance scale slide values are off by an order of magnitude. Copernicus is depicted as only about 10km across, rather than the actual 100km. Otherwise a good app."

DESCRIPTION
Moon maps galore! Scroll, zoom and search through high resolution US Geological Survey and NASA maps. LunarMap HD is fun for anybody who wants to see and know more about earth`s lovely satellite and is a great companion for amateur astronomy observations through a telescope.
Features of LunarMap HD include
- Nearside and farside of the moon
- Realistic US Geological Survey relief map (5120x5120 resolution)
- Beautiful photographic maps from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter`s Wide Angle Camera (20480x20480)
- Color-coded topological maps from both the USGS and NASA
- Realtime terminator (shadow) line
- Searchable labels for over 8950 craters, maria, mountains, valleys, Apollo landing sites and more, based on International Astronomical Union data; tap on feature for more information or to lookup in Wikipedia
- Rotate and/or flip the map to match your telescope`s eyepiece view, or for users in the southern hemisphere
- Zoom with two fingers (multitouch devices only), on-screen buttons or volume keys
- Customize colors, labels shown and other features
- Optionally lock screen rotation or make it harder to change so you need to turn the device further than usual to rotate to prevent accidental screen rotations while observing
- The maps are 2D. The nearside maps are projected to show a small portion of the farside, since libration can reveal a small portion of the farside
Note: To save app download time, maps other than the USGS relief nearside map involve an additional free in-app download, hence the Internet permission.
