We worked with Professor Mark Robinson in the early stages of this project, many years ago.
Scheduled to launch this afternoon, it is the main mapping project to get very high resolution imagery of the lunar surface. Professor Mark Robinson was at NU when he won this grant award from NASA. Now he is at ASU and I’m gad to see this project lift off… so to speak.
