006 - Farside Albedo

Global map of the albedo from the 750-nanometer filter of the Clementine UV-VIS camera and this is the FarSide of the Moon, shown in Lambert equal-area projection.
Note the lack of maria on the FarSide, as compared to the NearSide.
The relatively dark area at center-bottom outlines the extent of the South Pole-Aitken Basin. This view has been subsampled to a resolution of about 1 Km per pixel, about 5 times lower than the full-resolution data.
