There should not be another satellite sent out without a HD video camera if they're going to put a video camera on it. These images are amazing.

This is pretty freaking cool. Now we need high def images of the other planets.

Did you notice what they are not showing us.... Like where the US landed on the moon. I would love to see that video more than looking at us from the moon.

Too bad they didn't fly over the Apollo landing site.

I would expect that the Apollo stuff might only show up as a pixel or so, though it would take some specs to compute that for sure, such as field of view and height of orbit.
