Cool Images from LRO

Some cool shots of the Apollo landing sites from the recently launched Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter:

There should be some better ones coming when they image the sites from the final (lower) orbit. We have a pretty cool instrument on LRO that we built called LAMP (http://www.boulder.swri.edu/lamp/).

Pretty cool, especially as it's the 40th anniversary and all the conspiracy-theorists are coming out of the woodwork and saying it never happened.

Not that those photos will change anything in their minds... :jerkoff:

Dirk,

You do some of the coolest stuff ever.
