| The Far Side of the Moon. NASA APOD based on Lunar Prospector mosaic imagery from 2011 onwards. |
" I decided to post this NASA mosaic because it shows how different the Lunar far side is from the near side, which we gaze upon from Earth. Also we will never be able to image it from the Jodrell Plank Observatory because the Moon is tidally locked to present the same face to Earth (more or less and other than at the limbs). - Joel Cairo CEO of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
