Best Moon Topo Map ever...so far.

I'll let the images speak for themselves.  The data comes from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.  It is a false color image...blue representing the lowest elevations, and red the highest.The bottom video shows how LRO LOLA (Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter) works.

I can't wait for someone to apply this to a new 3D texture for the Moon in Orbiter.
