Title: Coordinating LOIRP Enhanced Lunar Orbiter and Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter High Resolution Images for Selected Science and Exploration Targets
Summary / Review : Compare old and new images of the Moon to look for meteor impacts over 40+ years.

"The Lunar Orbiter Image Recovery Project (LOIRP), located at the NASA Ames Research Park is in the process of digitizing the original analog tapes of the Lunar Orbiter (LO) image database. This new resource of 43 year old LO images arc being digitized in a manner that will foster their utility for comparison with the output of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) In order to meet on of the LROC's main exploration goals of ascertaining the hazards of small meteors for crew operations, the oldest and highest resolution datasets must be used. The LOIRP recovered images from the five Lunar Orbiters meet this criterion.[I]." (Author's abstract)
