1 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:32,200 we have some of the most stunning images 2 00:00:36,510 --> 00:00:33,650 of the lunar surface that I've ever seen 3 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:36,520 these are pictures of the Apollo 17 4 00:00:42,310 --> 00:00:39,530 Apollo 14 and Apollo 12 landing sites 5 00:00:44,530 --> 00:00:42,320 that were taken while the LRO spacecraft 6 00:00:46,410 --> 00:00:44,540 was in a what we're calling a dipping 7 00:00:49,030 --> 00:00:46,420 orbit where the spacecraft was roughly 8 00:00:51,130 --> 00:00:49,040 25 kilometers above the surface so we 9 00:00:53,979 --> 00:00:51,140 have some very high-resolution images of 10 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:53,989 these Apollo landing sites for example 11 00:00:58,450 --> 00:00:56,330 at the Apollo 17 landing site we can see 12 00:01:00,369 --> 00:00:58,460 where the lunar rover is parked on the 13 00:01:02,650 --> 00:01:00,379 surface we can see where it drove around 14 00:01:04,180 --> 00:01:02,660 around the the lunar module you can see 15 00:01:06,490 --> 00:01:04,190 the areas where the astronauts kicked up 16 00:01:07,630 --> 00:01:06,500 the dust when they walked around you can 17 00:01:09,700 --> 00:01:07,640 see some of the experiments that were 18 00:01:11,139 --> 00:01:09,710 left behind sitting on the surface 40 19 00:01:15,510 --> 00:01:11,149 years ago and you can see where they are 20 00:01:18,460 --> 00:01:15,520 still sitting there on the lunar surface 21 00:01:20,020 --> 00:01:18,470 these are some of the most amazing 22 00:01:22,510 --> 00:01:20,030 images of the moon that I've ever seen 23 00:01:25,540 --> 00:01:22,520 because they really put into sort of a
