Exaggerated Moon
This image of Earth's Moon, Luna, digitally exaggerates its features for educational purposes. The craters are made to appear larger, and the texture spikier, than they are in reality. This composite uses surface height data from NASA's Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) mission. The enhancements help to highlight lunar highlands and crater details.
