Re: Geologic map for the Moon

That's really nice. thanks Void!
Next we need to get people with notebooks, cameras, hand microscopes, pieces of tile and little hammers to verify it and improve the details. Not to mention some drilling crews.

Mars is pretty well mapped with data acquired since the Viking Orbiters but it would be great to have maps of all bodies Ceres, Mercury, Europa, Titan etc.
