Yes, even without the telescope, the moon is a beautiful rock in space, so to speak. While the planets show some rockiness (well, Mars does, the others being shrouded in thick atmospheres or too close or far from the sun to resolve as rocky spheres), the Moon is magnificent just as she is, blessing us with her visage (except during full moon of course).
The fool who fancies he is full of wisdom while he sits by his hearth at home.
Quickly finds when questioned by others that he knows nothing at all.
- The Havamal, verse 26
