Description

Star hopping was the traditional method that observers used to find objects in the faint glow was pre-Goto. Leaping star stronger to the weaker until the region of interest where it should locate the target. Well, I tried to do an equivalent job to find the Lunar South Pole.

Skipping the well-known crater in the crater to reach the target.

Although the South Pole itself is not visible is the place to be a reasonable accuracy. I tried also indicate the location of the impact of Lunar Prospector probe launched on January 7, 1998 into an orbit circunpolar, this probe that was important to detect the presence of water at the South Pole, and then sent toward the ground clashed with this on July 31, 1999 between the crater and Scott South Pole
