... Five Lunar Orbiter missions were launched in 1966 through 1967 with the purpose of mapping the lunar surface before the Apollo landings. ... The first three missions were dedicated to imaging 20 potential lunar landing sites, selected based on Earth-based observations. ... The Lunar Orbiters had an ingenious imaging system, which consisted of a dual-lens camera, a film processing unit, a readout scanner, and a film handling apparatus. ... Launched: 04 May 1967 . ... Objective: Lunar mapping mission ...

. These photos of the solar corona show the improvement in resolution offered by NASA's High Resolution Coronal Imager (bottom) versus the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly on NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (top). The representative color images were made from observations of ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 19.3 nanometers (25 times shorter than the wavelength of visible light). Credit: NASA
