Yea , thanks for the link Mark. With the resolution of the zoomable map I may as well give up lunar imaging, not going to get anywhere near as good a resolution as that with my gear, ever.
Seriously though, another great resource, awesome.
The second panel (1) is the best I can do with my scope currently. It's Mare Crisium and the crater below the number 1 is one of my favorites (Picard - it's all in the name :-). I picked the smallest detail I could find - which is only visible because of favourable lighting and contrast - and decided to zoom in as far I could.
That structure that could only just be made out was 1km in width. Pretty good, I thought, until I kept zooming
...and zooming
...and zooming.
Eventually that 1km structure filled the screen and I could see the rocks on the slope.
WOW. I'm a little excited.
Thank you Marc!
Markus

Very interesting interactive website - thanks for sharing.
Changing settings & seeing the Farside firstly zoomed-out is intriguing, purely because it is unrecognisable as our familiar moon. Exploring this Farside is also fascinating - such detail, especially various 'canals'.
