Description

This is a 3D model of Lunar Astronautical Chart 76 overlaid with a Wide Angle Camera image for a photorealistic view of the surface of the Moon.  The model is generated from data provided by the LRO Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter Team at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.   

Apollo 12 Landing Site:  Draw a line from Landsberg, the truncated crater at the upper left, southeast until you hit the top of the L formed by three craters near the left middle of the chart, Fra Mauro B.  The landing site is two-thirds of the way down from Landsberg to Fra Mauro B along that line, just north of the left of the two matched small craters.

Apollo 14 Landing Site:  Divide the chart into quarters.  The Apollo 14 landing site is just to the left of the center of the northeast quadrant.

Use two-finger zoom on a trackpad for an intermediate zoom, or click on full resolution for the full-size image.
