The papers deal primarily with earth-based and space-based mapping of the lunar surface in the 100 years since the publication of Dr. Julius Schmidt's lunar map. Specific topics include the role of the Apollo project as a means for and a beneficiary of the United States' lunar mapping program, photographic and photoelectric studies of the lunar surface, lunar limb mapping and measurement, current selenodesy, earth-based radar mapping of the lunar surface and the telescopic investigation of the spectral reflectivity of lunar maria. Current and planned NASA space transportation and space exploration programs, the Viking lander mapping of Mars and Cassini's lunar map of 1679 are also discussed.
