I was wondering if anyone has assembled a good image of Mare Orientale from recent spacecraft data. Or possibly cleaned up the image from LO 4.
I could use it for Chuck Wood's Exploring the Moon column in Sky & Telescope.

Thanks,

Sean Walker

Shadow of the greatest rock looks like a shadow of the Egyptian obelisk.
