Photo made to compare how many small craterlets can be seen with a photo taken on Earth 350 thousand km away and another taken by LROC which orbits the Moon 50 km away.
I counted about 70 craterlets on mine, but there are more!

Wonderful image Avani.
I like checking how many craterlets can be counted, a good test of optics and sky conditions.

not bad, i checked the scope on the sat, running a 7.6'' f3.5 Ritchey-Chretien , impressive comparison given it is 50km away
