The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) spacecraft has been in lunar orbit mapping and recording high resolution images of the moon since 2009. NASA recently released a cool video that uses the LRO images and data to recreate what the Apollo 13 astronauts would have seen on their journey around the farside of the moon. Here is a link to the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter website. Blue Moon

My grandma Oxner always said that the moon landing was fake and wrestling was real.

Well I watched the video,..."where was the flag we put there?" If you go to the website they have images of the landing sites. The LRO has given us some great images. It's average altitude in lunar orbit is only 31 miles (50Km) above the lunar surface. Worth clicking over to YouTube and watching in full screen or at least theater mode. Make sure you click on the highest resolution option you have to view it.

Really neat. I think I saw a roach at the bottom of one of those craters.
