Thanks to a long-lasting orbiter, scientists have been able to create a detailed map of the surface of the moon, including the dark side, which never points toward earth.

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter last month celebrated its 10th anniversary of surveying the moon's mountains and valleys, as NASA gears up to put people on the moon by 2024. The LRO's map-making success will make easier for the mission to return astronauts to the moon in 2024, says one of the space agency's top astronomers.
