Caption ESA originale:"This image of the Lunar Surface was taken on 25 August at 10:08 CEST (08:15 UT) by the star tracker (attitude camera) on board ESA’s SMART-1, from a distance of 59 Km above the Moon Surface. The spacecraft was travelling at a speed of 2 Km/sec.
The image is slightly smeared as the spacecraft is moving at high speed and at low altitude. This image was taken as a test, meaning that the spacecraft pointing was not optimised for star tracker imaging.
The Moon features on the photo still have to be identified".
