I've been checking where the LRO is, and noticed it is moving over the Apollo sites again. I thought last night they will soon release 17, and within 1 hour it was up.

It's passed over 11 and should image the others in the coming days.

Thank God for men like Armstrong. In times of war they defended our freedom and liberty. In times of peace they expanded our knowledge.

I'd guess that the foot and rover tracks show up so much better in the new picture because of the higher sun angle rather than just a lower orbit for LRO.

Could you possibly change these images to links? There is a rule about not posting images larger than 400x400 pixels here.

Hi all,

Maybe you might enjoy seeing, step by step, how I processed the latest raw LRO image of the Apollo 17 landing site:

Given that the LRO is going to end up doing several passes of each site now that it's in its scientific orbit, how feasible would it be to interpolate multiple slightly offset views to see if we can get any additional information?
