This is certainly new to me, although it's been in operation since 2007. What planet did I just step off of?

This is such a cool story! It's kinda sad though that it's been so hard for them to raise the money necessary to complete this project-it's both time consuming and complicated. Thanks for posting this, Badsneaker!

Wingo and Cowing should be commended highly for the great job they're doing.

I wrote them not long ago to ask of their progress and was told that they will be slipping the rest of the images into the archive as they finish them-
The ones already there are the best lunar orbiter copy I've yet to see.

It'll be nice to see some clearer images of the structures. I wonder why NASA has been so lackadaisical about the Moon photos??

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
