Since I don't have the skills myself, I'm hoping
someone on this list will accept your challenge
to design a sundial for Armstrong's landing site,
and share the design with us.

Hi everyone,

Dear dialists,
I have heard and seen pictures of that sundial placed
in Mars but I have never heard of a sundial on the Moon...
Does anybody know something about this?
Such a sundial would be 'more or less' similar to one
on the Earth... except for the small wobbling of the
Moon's orbit (around
Mercury rotates around the sun at the same rate that it rotates around
it's axis.

Hello all:
If we use a lunar sundial to determine the length of a lunar day (27 earth
days), and we are already familiar with the terms full, half and quarter
moons, then it would be convenient if there were 100 tics in a lunar day.
If 100 tics equal 27 earth days
