Have you ever wondered what some lunar craters or basins might look
like when 'unfurled', 'uncircled'? Well, here's a simple method in

(1) Sinus Iridum. (2) Plato.
(3) Copernicus. (4) Mare Imbrium (Selene Crustal Topo-overlay on
LDEM 64). (5) Mare Nectaris (Selene Crustal Topo-overlay on LDEM
64). (6) Mare Orientale (LOLA overlay on LDEM 64). |
