LRO L-14 Press Conference Supporting Videos

This video starts with LRO launch animation, shows the spacecraft's path to orbit, and ends with the spacecraft animated over the lunar surface.

LRO has six scientific instruments and one technology demonstration. This video shows a split screen with where they are on board and images of them being integrated at Goddard Space Flight Center.

This video gives an idea of how LRO will collect swaths of data (in this case topography). Note how data coverage is denser at the poles than at the equator. (some elevation data provided by JAXA/SELENE)

This video illustrates how LRO's datasets will be combined to complete its mission objectives.

This video uses existing datasets to show in a rough way what LRO's topography data might look like (some elevation data provided by JAXA/SELENE).
