Tranquillity Base map.

A comparison of the qualities of photographs taken by astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin from Tranquillity Base and of photographs taken from the Lunar Module window, in terms of valuable information. The latter, found to be more reliable than the former, are used as the primary source in compiling the Tranquillity Base Surface and Experiment Locations Map. The former are rated as excellent for identification purposes and are used in locating supplemental details. However, the geometry obtained on most of these latter frames is believed to be less reliable because of large changes in vertical angles.
