I have a meeting tomorrow with a professor about selecting items for her class on the Moon.
Unrelatedly, I was down in the stacks looking for something else and stumbled upon a rare and important 17th century map of the Moon that is *completely uncataloged*.
This is the closest I’ve ever felt to having a superpower.

@overholt that’s awesome. One of my favorite moments doing research was a time I was in Boston visiting friends while I was in college and I stopped by Harvard’s special collections (as a history undergrad geek does) to look at a few books from the 1500’s. The physical card catalog (eh this was a while ago) said one book had no maps but I took a chance and indeed it did have the map I wanted to look at (I was trying to trace the history of a map across editions and translations). Cool moment
