“The data we gather from its features can tell us a lot about the rest of the solar system,” says the narrator.

The new data that LRO is gathering helps us reinterpret the geology of familiar places, giving scientists a better understanding of the sequence of events in early lunar history,” it adds.

“This updated visualisation of the Lunar landscape stands as a testament to the functionalities and the abilities of the LRO and as the mission continues to gather data, it will provide us with many more opportunities to a tour of our moon.”
