Need map of the moon?

Post by nF »

Google just launch a map of the moon just like those sat pictures of earth. Go http://moon.google.com/ if you want to take a look at it. By the way, it only shows part of the moon where the lunar landings are. Maybe more feedback to them will make them include the full moon itself :D

Quite nice. Zoom in all the way and you can even make out what the moon is made of.

Very nice, though I do prefer the detailed moon maps in Antonin Rukl's Atlas of the Moon.
