NASA | LRO Fourth Anniversary

The video explores the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and its significant contributions to our understanding of the Moon. Since its launch in 2009, LRO has provided detailed topographical data, discovered the coldest places in the solar system, and found evidence of water ice on the Moon. Working with other missions, LRO has helped probe the Moon's crust, revealing its historical significance as a record of solar system events. The Moon remains a key to understanding Earth's past, and LRO continues to gather vital data, inspiring future exploration.
