The Moon has always held a place of particular fascination in our earthbound lives. Many of the most well-known mythologies feature female lunar deities such as the Greek goddess Artemis as well as the Chinese goddess Chang'e. Also of significance is that many religions and societies are oriented chronologically by the Moon as opposed to the Sun, for example, the word Chandra means Moon and has religious significance during many Hindu festivals.
