With a little help from some Chinese readers I found a couple other interesting sites with images.
Here's a different view of the first image released: (From here) And a large gallery of interesting images, graphs, etc (unfortunately with large watermarks) here. Anybody want to wade through it with Google translator and see what we're looking at? --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Here's a pretty image:
http://www.clep.org.cn/index.asp?modelname...ng&recno=24 The Google translation of the caption is less than clear. QUOTE Moon Lents impact craters near the back of a typical morphology of radiation impact, geo-diameter hole about 30 Km from impact craters Center radial projectile substantial highlighted substances (based on regional geological background, it should be based Fractal plagioclase rock debris), which Class of impact craters formed in the usually late. 本图是由5轨CCD正视影像数据拼接而成的,数据获取时间为2007年12月4日。 This map is addressed by the five-track CCD image data from the splicing, data acquisition time for the December 4, 2007. Can any of you who read Chinese help? Has this image been posted elsewhere at higher resolution? --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

Here's a link to a new Chang-e 1 image. A polar region. Only a low res version initially, but it should come out at full resolution soon. Maybe our Cinese colleagues can help us find it.

Nothing new 'Made in China' since last week?
Well at least we'll have Chandrayaan-1 (India) passing the Moon next April and Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (USA) taking a look at the South Pole by November of this year... |

A very happy New Year to all our Chinese members! It seems singularly appropriate to this board that it should now be the Year of the RAT
(PhilCo, this may be why there has not been much news lately from the East. You don't get much out of the West over Christmas holidays either.) --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

A hint from a source I cannot identify... that Chang-e 1 may be having data transmission difficulties. I don't know if this means on the spacecraft itself, though it sounds like it. To be honest I know nothing, but this statement is circulating.

Only fair to add now that the hints I spoke of may have been wrong! Sorry about that.
As for the stereo etc. - you can expect to wait years for that, except for occasional press releases or big conferences. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

This short article on Xinhua news agency about Chang-e:
China almost done with map of moon surface I'm wondering if we will ever see any pictures. |

Sounds like it'll be a fairly controlled release. I wouldn't hold my breath.
