A new NASA mosaic captured by two moon orbiters has given us a more detailed look at the Lunar South Pole where Artemis III may land.
that ShadowCam allowed the space agency to capture the shadowed regions of the Moon in greater detail, which has given scientists a much better look at the Lunar South Pole. And that level of detail shows through completely in the new Moon mosaic.LROC, on the other hand, has been used by the space agency to capture in-depth and detailed photos of the surface of the Moon that isn’t heavily obscured by darkness.
Being able to capture such an amazing image from orbit is part of what makes these spacecraft so important for studying the Moon and its surface. NASA hopes to be able to create a more complete map of the Lunar South Pole utilizing images from these two cameras. Such a map would prove extremely valuable for future surface exploration endeavors, such as theYou can view the new NASA Moon mosaic embedded above for a complete look at what NASA’s two cameras have made possible.
