Default Cheesy Moon Page launched (no - NOT a troll)

Yowsa - that's quite an ambitious project. This could end up being a
massive site, and I'd recommend from the get-go to start using
thumbnails. After a while, the pages will take an enourmous amount of
time and bandwidth to load.

As for lunar mists... Has the Transient Lunar Phenomenon (TLP) been
proven to be balderdash? Could a mist be the result of outgassing?
Could enough of an impacted comet survive to provide a delayed burp?

But the depiction does have a rather dense look to it. I'm not sure
when these were made, but judging by the look of the rockets, I think
they made pretty good guesses without having had any real experience
yet.
