[quote:Anonymous Coward 56904219:MV8yODk3Njk0XzUxMDYyOTg1X0MwNzM2QThD] [quote:Sobriquet™:MV8yODk3Njk0XzUxMDYyOTYyX0MwOTREMkEx] [quote:Dr. Astro:MV8yODk3Njk0XzUxMDYyOTAyXzk2Q0U3NTI3] [quote:exlibris:MV8yODk3Njk0XzUxMDYyNDAyXzlFMTZFNjc0] It's curious that with all this available technology no one has detailed photos of the moon... yet we can see the farthest star bearing nebula in perfect HD. I believe that a few high resolution photos of the moon would put all the conspiracy theories to rest. [/quote] http://apollo.mem-tek.com/LRO_NAC_Apollo_Images.html Those are some of the highest resolution images of the moon's surface ever taken (not counting Apollo surface photos of course). They are extremely detailed, down to about four tenths of a meter per pixel. No one has any photos of any nebula at even 1 km per pixel resolution. HD is meaningless, we have tons of HD photos of the moon, that whole site is filled with them. We also have "HD" photos of nebulae, like this: https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2949/15317870210_f2b24dda8c_o.jpg All that means is that it has a lot of pixels. It says nothing about the angular resolution, let alone the spatial resolution. Nebulae are huge, so we can see lots of detail even from earth, but you're talking about a cloud in space that is measured in light years, versus a moon that is measured in kilometers. I took the above photo of the Orion nebula, the same telescope with roughly the same optical setup would see this for the moon (same telescope though I would never use that particular camera for the moon since it's so sensitive): https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3800/13878065965_22b1d0085a_h.jpg Not terrible, but you're not going to spot rovers or flags on the moon that way. [/quote] I can see my car in my driveway on Google Earth. I can see my chimney on my house too. No equivalent for the Moon. Must not be a priority. :1dunno1: [/quote] :1rof1::hf: [/quote]
