Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has released very sharp HDTV video material from Kaguya lunar explorer. This is the first time we see such high quality video of the Moon. Kaguyan camera uses 1920×1080 resolutions. Best still pictures are available to see in JAXA website, as well as lower scaled videos. It is really interesting to see such sharp videos from the Moon. See our earlier news release related to JAXA.
Kaguya lunar explorer was launched on September 14th and is now orbiting the Moon 100 kilometers above the Moon surface. The image on left side is taken by the Kaguya explorer. It is a screen capture of the original high resolution movie in which South Pole is located on top of the Earth.
