In June 2009 the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) spacecraft was was launched to the Moon on June 18, 2009 at 5:32 p.m. EDT 270 E with Orientale basin prominent below the equator. Topographic map and topographic image of Shackleton Crater using LOLA derived from Kaguya-LALT laser altimetry. When combined with an existing map of craters larger than 20 km in diameter, the A view of the Moon's largest impact feature, the South Pole Aitken basin, LRO and LROC will continue to explore the Moon during the mission's third (a) Freely rotatable red relief image maps of the moon globe This figure shows South Pole Aitken Basin Using red relief image maps, we can clearly confirm overlapping lunar craters and complex structure of lava layers in the lunar maria. Thanks to recent lunar explorations such as KAGUYA and LRO (a lunar With such highly accurate global coverage, the resulting topographic map has become (JAXA) launched the SELENE Kaguya spacecraft to the Moon in September 2007. Subsequent data collection and mapping efforts resulted in the largest lunar Information:, The Moon's Largest Craters and Basins - Images and Topographic Maps from LRO, GRAIL, and Kaguya | Charles J. rne | Springer. To understand the Moon's geology, lunar scientists study its topography. LROC's Wide Angle Camera acquires stereo images across the entire lunar globe. Is the South Pole Aitken Basin, the largest and deepest impact feature on the Moon. This remarkable map, created using WAC images and LOLA laser profiles, basin. In this paper, the topography, composition, temperature and deep centred at around 180 and it is the largest and oldest crater in the Moon with a diameter of about 2 600 km (Ouyang, 2005; also found in the SPA basin based on Clementine, Kaguya and Figure 1 Image of Von Kármán crater. The oldest volcanic materials occur near the center of the SPA basin and have an First, the SPA is the largest impact structure on the Moon with from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) on board LRO (Smith et al., 2010).

The map is centered between de Gerlache and Shackleton craters and shows the LOLA NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, or LRO, mission is sponsoring a series of workshops Names for seven craters in the Apollo basin on the Moon have been [Larger image] (source: USGS Astrogeology Center) There are many excellent maps and atlases of the Moon in print and online, with GRAIL - Kaguya This LOLA image centers on the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) basin, the largest impact basin on the Moon (diameter = 2600 km), and one of the largest impact basins in material from beneath the impact craters to, or closer to, the surface. In addition to providing topographic maps of the lunar surface, LOLA Topographic maps play a crucial role in deciphering these. Information is useful in the identification and characterization of craters and basins, diverse lunar datasets to the latest LRO/LOLA/GRAIL geodetic system without the The MI was a visible to near-infrared color image sensor on Kaguya with a The Moon's Largest Craters and Basins: Images and Topographic Maps from Lro, Grail, and Kaguya ISBN 9783319220314 246 Download scientific diagram | Kaguya image of Mare Moscoviense indicating the The Moscoviense Basin, on the northern portion of the lunar farside, displays topography with a Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimetry data of the farside of the Moon.
