Popis:

One of the first images produced by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. Regions near the moon's Mare Nubium region, as photographed by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter's LROC instrument. The spacecraft transmitted its first images of the lunar surface captured with the LROC that were activated on 2009-06-30. The area that has been imaged is a few kilometers east of Hell E crater in the lunar highlands south of Mare Nubium. The images were taken on a terminator, the dividing line between day and night. Each image shows a region that is 1400 meters wide with features as small as 3 meters wide discerned.
