We transformed the 1966 map of the moon into a stunning 3D Raised Relief. The original map was created by NASA and the Department of Defense by compositing photographs from three observatories. The purpose of the map was to prepare for landing a manned spacecraft on the moon which they successfully accomplished in 1969.
This unique map undergoes a meticulous process where it is printed, heated, and vacuum-formed over an intricately detailed 3D mold. The result is a map that allows you to visually and tactilely explore the moon's terrain and many craters.
Framed maps do not have glass or acrylic over them, so you can touch the map and explore its intricacies.
PLEASE NOTE
You will love this map if you embrace its anomalies. When the plastic is heated and stretched over the 3D mold, the image may be altered, causing warped lines and text around higher elevations.
