Voyager Earth's Moon features     The default Moon uses a texture underlay grid grd=1 showing a Clementine orbiter greytone composite image. Modern shape and gravity data is also derived from the Clementine mission data.

The texture underlay grids available under [Features:] of Voyager: Earth's Moon are:

[Clementine greytone]		grd = 1		Clementine orbiter composite image (0.03125° resolution)
[Topography, color]		grd = 2		color-scaled topography, derived from Clementine LIDAR data; no constrained data at latitudes greater than ~78° (0.25° resolution)
[Geoid]		grd = 5		geoid model, derived from Clementine data (1° resolution)
[Geoid error]		grd = 8		geoid model error (1° resolution)
[Crustal thickness]		grd = 6		crustal thickness, derived from Clementine data (1° resolution)
[Free air gravity]		grd = 4		free-air gravity model, derived from Clementine data (0.25° resolution)
[Free air error]		grd = 7		free-air gravity model error (0.25° resolution)
[Bouguer gravity]		grd = 3		Bouguer gravity model, derived from Clementine data (1° resolution)

The standard image overlays available under [Features:] for optional longitude and latitude marking or distance scale bars are explained Advanced Help: generic options.

The image overlays available under [Missions:] (background material at Planetary Missions) are:

[site labels]	no thumbnail image	lbl = 1		names of all selected missions included on zoomed-in maps
[ancillary site data]	no thumbnail image	lbl = 2		(currently) dates of all selected missions included on zoomed-in maps
[USA Apollo landings]		mon = 1		sites of USA Apollo landings, LM descent stage
[USSR Luna sites]		mon = 2		sites of USSR Luna landings/crashes
[USA Ranger sites]		mon = 4		sites of USA Ranger impacts
[USA Surveyor sites]		mon = 8		sites of USA Surveyor landings/crashes
[USA Lunar Prospector site]		mon = 256		site of USA Lunar Prospector de-orbit impact
[ESA SMART-1 site]		mon = 512		site of ESA SMART-1 de-orbit impact
[USA Apollo ALSEPs]		mon = 16		sites of USA Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP)
[USA Apollo LRRRs]		mon = 32		sites of USA Apollo Lunar Ranging Retroreflectors (LRRR)
[USA Apollo LM-ascent]		mon = 64		sites of USA Apollo LM ascent stage de-orbit impacts
[USA Apollo SIV-B]		mon = 128		sites of USA Apollo-Saturn SIV-B stage impacts

Note: Any grd, gmt, geo, lbl, vel, mon, msc, or opt code might change in the future, so be sure to check here for the current values!
