http://www.skyandtelescope.com/astronomy-news/a-half-gigabyte-view-ofthemoon/I had this bookmarked for the longest time, since 2011. I do keep a copy on my HDD's. I find this image in the radical list of things. BEWARE: If downloaded and opened, make sure your system can handle it. The 500MB image is very resource intensive. I got 8gig of high performance ram and it eats every little bit opening this image.

Tried to open it in my system. It doesn't even opens. Seems that I might need to split the image in to smaller parts and then open them. Anyway... it is amazing... at this resolution.

Yes , I am curious about 500MB size of the image . I wonder if there are any this much size images of other planets as well. Looks like will have to use some Google Fu skills . |

I'd love to see more as well. Also, I'd have to hook up to a 40-80" screen HD tv to really enjoy the image/images as 1280x1024 monitor SUCKS. |

Agree about the 80" screen TV. |
