Spacewatch, which uses a 90 centimeter telescope sited at the Kitt Peak Observatory in Arizona, updated with automatic pointing, imaging, and analysis equipment to search the skies for intruders, was set up in 1980 by Tom Gehrels and Dr. Robert S. McMillan of the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory of the University of Arizona in Tucson, and is now being operated by Dr. McMillan.

DISR was developed at the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona under the direction of Martin Tomasko, with several European institutes contributing to the hardware.

During the 1960s, rectified images of Mare Orientale by Gerard Kuiper at the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory gave rise to the notion of it being an impact crater.

The Principal Investigator was Alan Binder of the Lunar Research Institute.

The system uses data from the SIMBAD, the NASA / IPAC Extragalactic Database, the International Astronomical Union Circulars and the Lunar and Planetary Institute to identify papers referring to a given object, and can also search by object position, listing papers which concern objects within a 10 arcminute radius of a given Right Ascension and Declination.

Major centers for planetary science research include the Lunar and Planetary Institute, the Applied Physics Laboratory, the Planetary Science Institute, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Southwest Research Institute, and Johnson Space Center.

He worked at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston and the European Space Agency, before joining the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and becoming a senior staff scientist at that facility.

He later joined Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston as a staff scientist.

He returned to the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston in 2008 and is currently a Senior Staff Scientist there.

Since 1983 he was a staff scientist at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas.

Apollo 16 was slated to be the second of the " J-missions ," an Apollo mission type featuring the use of the Lunar Roving Vehicle ( LRV ), increased scientific capability, and lunar surface stays of three days.

In later, more scientific years, their names were given to the Lunar nodes.

The office initially proposed a number of projects for direct scientific study, including an extended-stay lunar mission which required two Saturn V launchers, a " lunar truck " based on the Lunar Module ( LEM ), a large manned solar telescope using an LEM as its crew quarters, and small space stations using a variety of LEM or CSM-based hardware.

In addition, the USGS digitization project created frames from very high resolution Lunar Orbiter images for several ' sites of scientific interest.

Except for Apollo 11, all of the missions carried an Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package ( ALSEP ), composed of equipment for seven scientific experiments plus a central control station ( they were controlled from the Earth ) with a radioisotope thermoelectric generator ( RTG ).

Besides the importance of his geographical discoveries, Baffin is to be remembered for the importance and accuracy of his numerous scientific and magnetic observations, including the determination of longitude at sea by lunar observation or Lunar Distance.

Lunar occultations timed to an accuracy of a few tenths of a second have various scientific uses, particularly in refining our knowledge of lunar topography.

The rioters burned not only the homes and chapels of Dissenters, but also the homes of people they associated with Dissenters, such as members of the scientific Lunar Society.

Dissenter and Anglican lived side by side harmoniously: they were on the same town promotional committees ; they pursued joint scientific interests in the Lunar Society ; and they worked together in local government.

The Lunar Society was " the most important private scientific association in eighteenth-century England " and the Midlands Enlightenment " dominated the English experience of enlightenment ", but also maintained close links with other major centres of the Age of Enlightenment, particularly the universities of the Scottish Enlightenment, the Royal Society in London, and scientists, philosophers and academicians in France, Sweden, Saxony, Russia and America.

Analysis of the subject-matter of Lunar Society meetings shows that its main concern was with pure scientific investigation rather than manufacturing, and the influence of Midlands Enlightenment thinkers can be seen in areas as diverse as education, the philosophy of mind, Romantic poetry, the theory of evolution and the invention of photography.

The Lunar Society included industrialists such as Samuel Galton, Jr. as well as intellectuals such as Erasmus Darwin and Joseph Priestley ; scientific lecturers such as John Warltire and Adam Walker communicated basic Newtonian principles widely to the town's manufacturing classes ; and men such as Matthew Boulton, James Keir, James Watt and John Roebuck were simultaneously highly regarded both as scientists and as technologists, and in some cases also as businessmen.

He was the first chairman of NASA ’ s Lunar Exploration Committee, which established the scientific goals for the exploration of the moon during the Apollo lunar landings.

During the 18th century the mill was leased by Matthew Boulton, one of the pioneers of the Industrial Revolution and leading figure of the Lunar Society, for scientific experimentation.

He was the son of Samuel " John " Galton, a prominent member of the scientific Lunar Society, and the father of Francis Galton the eminent Victorian scientist.

While scientific experiments performed by Clementine and Lunar Prospector could indicate the presence of water in the polar craters, the current evidence is far from definitive.

Few games exist for the earliest of programmable calculators ( including the Hewlett-Packard 9100A, one of the first scientific calculators ), including the long-popular Lunar Lander game often used as an early programming exercise.

As early as 1755, the mill was leased by Matthew Boulton, one of the pioneers of the Industrial Revolution and leading figure of the Lunar Society, for scientific experimentation.

The Lunar and Planetary Institute ( LPI ) is a scientific research institute dedicated to study of the solar system, its formation, evolution, and current state.

Lunar Exploration Analysis Group ( LEAG )-responsible for analyzing scientific, technical, commercial, and operational issues associated with lunar exploration in response to requests by NASA

A breathable interior atmosphere allowed various SF writers to postulate lunar life ( including intelligent life ) in spite of scientific observations of the uninhabitability of the Lunar surface.
