Summary edit

Description
English: Moon-facing hemisphere of Mars on 8 May 2014 at 14:27:04 UTC seen from lunar orbit! Instruments on LRO sometimes use stars and planets for calibration or other special observations. During one of these off-Moon observations, LROC imaged Mars. This Moon-facing hemisphere of Mars has a dark (low albedo) feature on the west limb (left) that is Acidalia Planitia, and the bright (high albedo) region on the east limb (right) is Arabia Terra. LROC NAC M1154198455R is enlarged by a factor of 7 [NASA/GSFC/Arizona State University].
