Your Favorite Moon, On Acid
The science team that oversees the imaging system on board NASA’s  Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has released the highest resolution  near-global topographic map of the moon ever created.
This new topographic map, from Arizona State University in Tempe, shows the surface shape and features over nearly the entire moon with a pixel scale close to 100 meters (328 feet). A single measure of elevation (one pixel) is about the size of two football fields placed side-by-side. (NASA)
