NASA has provided us with some truly fantastic images of the Moon over the years. We’ve gotten to see Earth’s friendly little neighbor from just about every angle, and anyone who wants to scour images of its surface for interesting sights should have no problem doing so.
But photos are two-dimensional and as cool as high-resolution photos can be, they’re not quite as cool as a fully-realized 3D model. Now, using a wealth of information gathered by NASA’s own Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, the space agency has produced a pair of maps that can be used to create the most detailed and accurate model of Earth’s moon ever, and anyone can download it.
