"The mosaic used for this globe consists of more than 15,000 images acquired by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Wide-Angle Camera between November 2009 and February 2011. These images record details as small as 100 meters per pixel and with the Sun between 20° and 35° above the horizon at the equator, lighting favorable for identifying surface features"--Accompanying leaf.
