Buckle up, space nerds, the lunar landscape is taking center stage this month at monOrchid gallery, 214 East Roosevelt Street.

ASU's Dr. Mark Robinson is Principal Investigator of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC), which captures high resolution photos from 50 kilometers above the surface of the Moon. He and his team have documented and analyzed more than half of the Moon's surface since 2009 and have selected a number of seemingly 3D, hi-res images of Tycho Crater, Aristarchus Plateau, and Apollo-era landing sites that have been printed and installed in the gallery as "Lunar Landscapes."
