The
Bad Astronomer featured a document from JPL (NASA) about the Moon (you can download it, but it's a big one).

pebble paperweight project that I have been planning. More pics as soon as I find time to start it! Here's a picture of the original pebble paperweight idea from the Embroiderer's Guild of the UK:
