The Place of the Moon
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This essay explores author Christopher Cokinos’s journey learning the history of the Moon, observing the wild lunar terrain through his telescope, and contemplating how the Moon places us in the landscapes we live in. From musing about how we fictionalize—and therefore diminish—the real places we live in and see to how domesticity can help us explore new places, Cokinos writes a sweeping meditation of the Moon’s place in our lives, history, and future.
