India’s Chandrayaan-2 orbiter captured detailed images of the Apollo 11 and 12 landing sites on the Moon

In April 2021, The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO)’s Chandrayaan2 Orbiter captured images of NASA’s Apollo 11 & 12 landing sites and Lunar Modules from 100km altitude. In the Apollo 12 image, Astronaut boot tracks are even still visible! Due to recent interest in another post I shared, I decided to download and learn how to view the raw imagery myself from ISRO. More images can be found on my website, along with details about this orbiting spacecraft and instructions for how to access the ISRO imagery yourself: www.backyardastronomyguy.com/apollo-isro
