LRO after several burns moves into the desired orbit of the moon.   3603 Scientist
  Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Orbit Insertion - Stereoscopic Version

  LRO Ground Track - One Sidereal Month
The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) is the first mission in NASA's planned return to the moon. LRO is an unmanned mission to create the comprehensive atlas of the moon's features and resources necessary to design all future lunar exploration efforts. LRO focuses on the selection of safe landing sites, identification of lunar resources and the study of how lunar radiation will affect humans.<p><p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href=   10438 Interviewee
  LRO: Mapping Our Future
This sample composite combines all the animation elements listed below to visually tell the story of permanent shadows on the Moon. The aquamarine areas highlight the permanently shadowed regions.   3577 Scientist

  Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Orbit Insertion
This short narrated feature describes how LRO's instruments are used collectively to scout for safe landing sites. The crater depicted in this stereoscopic visualization is ficticious and only intended for illustrative purposes.

  LRO Scouts for Safe Landing Sites - Stereoscopic Version
This set provides stereoscopic images (Left and Right Eye separate) of the visualization. The raw frames provided here have alpha channels and no text labels, so this element can be overlaid over other visuals.   3567 Scientist
  How LRO Will Find Safe Landing Sites on the Moon - Stereoscopic Version

  LRO Scouts for Safe Landing Sites (Narrated)
The crater depicted in this animation is ficticious and only intended for illustrative purposes. The animation begins with the reveal of a digital elevation map showing sample lunar topography illustrating the kind of data that LRO's LOLA instrument will collect. From this topographic data level surface areas can be derived as the first step to determining safe landing sites. Next, an example temperature map of the lunar surface is revealed to show the sort of data Diviner will collect. Changes in surface temperature will help determine small rock hazards, since they retain and release heat at a different rate than the surrounding regolith. Large rock hazards can be found with LROC's surface imagery. Finally, removing rock hazard areas from level surface areas reveals potential safe landing sites for future lunar missions.   3533 Scientist
