Here is the first map. It starts at the landing site and ends at the stop for the first lunar night, also showing activities at the start of day 2. The landing site map is very different from the map I made earlier - and we will look at it in more detail later. Quite a lot of different panoramic images were taken from the rover when it was on the lander and in the vicinity, enough that I was able to do something unique for either Lunokhod. We'll see it tomorrow.

The first map of the Lunokhod 2 traverse. This map has an LRO NAC image base and a grid with 200 m spacing. The rover started at top left and drove down to bottom right, where its path is continued in an inset map.

As with my Apollo EVA maps and Lunokhod 1, this mission requires quite a few maps to cover it in detail. This index shows how they are arranged. The figure numbers are placeholders (final numbers will be larger) for my current project, which I hope to be revealing late this year.

This map has exactly the same base as the previous post.

An index map for the posts to follow this one, covering the route of Lunokhod 2. The individual maps are sized as pages in a book or PDF document. Figure numbers are only placeholders.
