Repost from LCROSS observation group.  The referenced images are done with 60cm (24 inches) of apeture.  New Mexico State University at Apache Point is one of the official LCROSS Team ground observatory collaborators.  The image titled "Image date and time" has the local circumstances imaging data.  Images titled "zoomed view" have arcsec size scaling labels.  Note the source author's (apparently a grad student at NMSU) statement that "You are welcome to distribute these images freely."  The images have good resolution but appear to contain a Y-axis distortion. - Clear Skies - Kurt ------------------ MoonThumper    [aka Brian Day, LCROSS Team Public Outreach officer] Sep 1, 9:25 am  Subject: Improved Maps of Lunar South Pole The following message is from Chas Miller at NMSU: Ryan Hamilton has create an improved composite image of the lunar south limb from Rob Suggs' IR video taken on August 11 (UT). Ryan has also put together a web site to distribute the images (rather than send big files over email). The images can be found at: http://astronomy.nmsu.edu/rthamilt/LCROSS/media.shtml There is actually one master composite image from which the others are derived. The main image is: http://astronomy.nmsu.edu/rthamilt/LCROSS/media/NMSU_LCROSS_SP_110809.png Other images are just cropped versions of that image, focussing closer on the Cabeus A, B region. We have also annotated the images with crater labeling and other relevant image info: Image date and time (taken from video spanning  4 minutes centered on 07:25 UT): http://astronomy.nmsu.edu/rthamilt/LCROSS/media/NMSU_LCROSS_wide_dates.png Full view composite with crater labeling: http://astronomy.nmsu.edu/rthamilt/LCROSS/media/NMSU_LCROSS_wide_scales.png Partially zoomed in view with crater labeling: http://astronomy.nmsu.edu/rthamilt/LCROSS/media/NMSU_LCROSS_medium.png Further zoomed in on Cabeus A, B region with crater labeling: http://astronomy.nmsu.edu/rthamilt/LCROSS/media/NMSU_LCROSS_narrow.png We are focussing on the Cabeus A, B region as those were mentioned as possible impact sites. We can label other target craters as needed. Cabeus A and B are not well defined at this angle. Ryan, Rob, and I spend some time with various pole projection maps and believe we have the right areas labeled. For reference, I have found values of 17 km  diameter for Newton E, 48 km for Cabeus A, and 61 km for Cabeus B. You are welcome to distribute these images freely. In fact, you can just distribute the link to the web page if you like and other astronomers can download images directly from there. Be aware that the processing we did results in some visible artifacts (especially at close zoom) and so these are not science quality images. However, we think they are very useful for crater hopping. Let me know if you have any questions about the images. Chas Miller
