awesome!

That's extraordinary. Did they really actually build a 3-D model, or unroll a long picture of it, or what?

Not sure, but iirc it was a 2D image cleverly shaded to look like a 3D model.

This thread seems generic enough that I can post this here. A map I made of Lunokhod 2's route based on a Soviet era map (Courtesy Jeanna Rodionova)
The route will be corrected now we have LROC images , but it's not too bad. Phil

That's in the "Stooke Book" isn't it? I have mine stashed away right now.

A version of it! I posted it here to follow up on a discussion in another thread about planetary rovers.

Thanks so much Phil,
I was missing Lunakhod 1 data and relied on this image to set up the figure in the other thread about planetary rovers...I'll see you there  (http://www.planetology.ru/panoramas/images/big/lunokhod1_c/lunokhod1_l_17_with_map.jpg)

Just compared your new map with the Big Stooke Book.... I see you have been improving your Russian, Phil, as well as refining the track from LRO!
