Clementine Collection

This colorized image shows the full Earth over the lunar north pole as Clementine completes mapping orbit 102 on March 13, 1994. It is a clear day over Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The angular separation between lunar horizon and Earth has been reduced for illustration purposes. The large crater at the bottom of the image is Plaskett at 180 West, 82 North.

A high resolution image is also available. Warning: this image is very, very, large (40 Mbytes)!!!
