First route map! I will keep it going, mostly on LROC images, as I need it for a future project. I am still working on an accurate scale.

This is a new version of the route map, as complete as I can make it now.
It is based on Chinese maps from the first lunar day, near the lander, and a Chinese map shown at LPSC, modified from my own examination of tracks in images, including a vertical projection of tracks from the middle of day 2, also shown at LPSC. The rover location is from the LROC images and it slightly updates the Chinese map shown at LPSC. Dots are stops between drives, and square symbols are science locations shown on the Chinese map. The dates shown for each stop are my estimates but they may not be correct, as we have almost no reliable information to go on. The rover is shown to scale (approximately) but I don't know its orientation. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
