High-resolution thermal map of the north polar region of the moon
Figure 3b. High-resolution thermal map of the north polar region of the moon. The map covers the region to 80° north latitude and was assembled from Diviner observations obtained in July and August, 2009. this figure shows Diviner Channel 8 observations, which define the temperatures inside permanently shadowed polar craters that may contain deposits of cold-trapped water ice.
