* The Lunar ( series ) video games feature a yeti as a boss near the snowy town of Zulan in Lunar: Eternal Blue and it's remake, Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete.

Lunar eclipses occurring near the Moon's descending node are given odd saros series numbers.

Their discovery has usually been credited to the American Lunar Orbiter series.

The Lunar Orbiter program was a series of five unmanned lunar orbiter missions launched by the United States from 1966 through 1967.

The Lunar Orbiter orbital photographs were transmitted to Earth as analog data after onboard scanning of the original film into a series of strips.

One of the highlights of the series came in 1959, when as a reward for his assistance in mapping the Lunar surface the Russians allowed Moore to be the first Westerner to see the photographic results of the Luna 3 probe, and to show them live on air.

Beginning in 1997 Martin Lo, Shane D. Ross, and others wrote a series of papers identifying the mathematical basis and applying the technique to the Genesis solar wind sample return, along with Lunar and Jovian missions.

* Lunar ( series ), a series of console video games

Geneon announced it had licensed the series for distribution in North America in 2004 under the title Tsukihime, Lunar Legend.

In 2010, the game was re-released in a Taco Bell promotion, in which a series of four classic Atari game CD-ROMs ( Centipede, Lunar Lander, Super Breakout, and Asteroids ) were given away in kids ' meals, and were also available for purchase separately.

A text-only version of Lunar Lander, written in BASIC, was included with the eight-inch floppy operating system diskettes for the Datapoint 2200 series in the early 1980s.

The battle system, like Game Arts ' Lunar series before it, placed emphasis on the combatants ' location in the field.

In the Western world, Game Arts is best known as the producers of the Lunar and Grandia series of role-playing video games, as well as the Gungriffon line of strategy games.

The Lunar games are a series of role-playing video games, developed by Game Arts in Japan and published in the United States by Working Designs, Ubisoft, and Xseed Games.

The Lunar series is noted for its high level of NPC interaction, well composed music, and excellent characterization of the main protagonists.

Much of the flavor of the English language versions of Lunar series games ( the sense of humor, bubbly character voices, etc.

The story takes place 1, 000 years before Lunar: The Silver Star, making it the earliest game in the series chronologically.

After escaping to the moon, Gwen refers to the now ancient Lunar Revolt ( as described in The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress ) and Mike ( Mycroft ), the self-aware computer responsible for the uprising's victory, and claims to have been present during the revolt ; despite her claim that she was only a girl at the time, Campbell grows suspicious, and learns that she is a rejuvenation of the revolution's most prominent female leader.

In addition, Moon Base ALUCE ( Advanced Lunar Chemical Engineering ) was also able to continue to function despite its close proximity to Earth.

The Soviet Union seems to have relatively little influence, whereas the Lunar Authority itself is portrayed as corrupt.

Sections of the interior floor appear relatively level, but Lunar Orbiter photographs reveal the surface is covered in many small hills, streaky gouges, and some minor fractures.

However, being relatively new technology, they are difficult to operate ( stock shots show pilots working multiple controls with hands and feet, while fingers rapidly operate switches on the hand grips ), so pilot candidates are selected from the best and brightest youth on Earth and the Lunar colony.

Lunar domes are the result of lava erupting from localized vents followed by relatively slow cooling.

By the second half of the century the town's leading thinkers – particularly members of the Lunar Society of Birmingham such as Joseph Priestley, James Keir, Matthew Boulton, James Watt, William Withering and Erasmus Darwin – had become widely-influential participants in the Republic of Letters, the free circulation of ideas and information among the developing pan-European and trans-Atlantic intellectual elite.

Lunar eclipses can occur only when the full moon occurs near the two nodes of the orbit, either the ascending or descending node.

Its two major components, the Saturn Workshop and the Apollo Telescope Mount, began their development as separate projects ( the SWS was kludged from the S-IVB stage of the Saturn 1B and Saturn V launch vehicles, the ATM was kludged from an early design for the descent stage of the Apollo Lunar Module ).

His contribution to the society was significant but short-lived: after collaborating with Withering on his Botanical Arrangement of British Plants the two quarrelled bitterly and Stokes severed his relations with the main Lunar members by 1788.

The LRV was transported to the Moon on the Apollo Lunar Module ( LM ) and, once unpacked on the surface, could carry one or two astronauts, their equipment, and lunar samples.

In early planning for the Apollo Program, it had been assumed that two Saturn V launch vehicles would be used for each lunar mission: one for sending the crew aboard a Lunar Surface Module ( LSM ) to lunar orbit, landing, and returning, and a second for sending an LSM-Truck ( LSM-T ) with all of the equipment, supplies, and transport vehicle for use by the crew while on the surface.

All of the Mariners launched after Mariner 2 had four solar panels for power, except for Mariner 10, which had two, and Mariner 2, which was based on the Ranger Lunar probe.

The time between two full moons ( a Lunar month ) is about 29. 53 days ( 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes ) on average ( hence, the concept of the time frame of an approximated month was derived ).

Sorcerer has two ancient forks: Lunar Linux and Source Mage which are not based on nor compatible with the current sorcery code nor compatible with current grimoire.

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.

Withering wrote two more editions of this work in 1787 and 1792, in collaboration with fellow Lunar Society member Jonathan Stokes, and after his death his son ( also William ) published four more.

This has made it possible to measure, say, the distance to the Moon with sub-centimeter accuracy ( see Lunar laser ranging experiment ), to measure slight movement of tectonic plates using GPS with sub-millimeter accuracy, or even to measure as slight variations in the distance between two mirrors separated by several kilometers as 10 < sup >− 18 </ sup > m — three orders of magnitude less than the size of a single atomic nucleus — see LIGO.

Komarov is commemorated in two memorials left on the Lunar surface: one left at Tranquility Base by Apollo 11, and the Fallen Astronaut plaque left by Apollo 15.

** Lunar Sample Return attempt ( failed to escape orbit and decayed back into the atmosphere after two days )

Luna 11, launched only two weeks after the U. S. Lunar Orbiter, entered lunar orbit at 21: 49 UT on 27 August.

Each flight to the Moon ( with the exception of Apollo 8, which did not take a Lunar Module on its lunar orbit mission ) had two AGCs, one each in the Command Module and the Lunar Module.

* Lunar months including leap months added every two or three years.

In this new power scheme two sides have emerged: the Congress of Settlement Nations ( CONSENT ), which is largely made up of former Federation members and encompasses Sides 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and their Earth-bound parent nations, and the Settlement Freedom League, Comprising Sides 1, 4, and the Lunar Cities.

There are two kinds of Lunar months followed in India-the New Moon ending called the Amanta or Sukladi system and the Full Moon ending ( covering one Full Moon to the next ) called the Purnimanta system.

The design was based on the Lunar Orbit Rendezvous approach: two docked spacecraft were sent to the Moon and went into lunar orbit.

Lunar Lander featured two concepts previously unseen in arcade video games:

In addition to the film cameras, similar to those used on the Lunar Orbiter spacecraft and requiring the Command Module Pilot to perform a deep-space EVA during the return trip, two of the SIM bays, on Apollos 15 and 16, also launched a lunar " subsatellite " before the astronauts performed the Trans-Earth Injection burn with the onboard service propulsion system.

Also, instead of constructing buildings like the other two factions, the Lunar Corporation is able to transport them from orbit to the battlefield.

Though it deviates from the play style of the first two games ( mostly due to the limitations of the Game Gear hardware ), it takes place in the same world, and even though it was released after Lunar: The Silver Star, it takes places hundreds of years before it.
