Really good for getting an overview of the surface activities on the mission.

I wonder what technology he used to do this - e.g. is it built from the actual images and video/film, or is it purely simulation?  I had a look on his channel but couldn't see an explanation.

:D

I was wondering how he'd got the activities worked out, and saw that it was based on "LROC temporal traverse data'. I'd not come across this so did a quick search and found:

which is also very cool.

Slightly off topic (but it is about Apollo 11, so there's that)

Scott Manley's latest YouTube video investigates the possibility that the ascent stage of  "Eagle" might still be in orbit around the Moon.

As with much of Scott Manley's work, I attribute Mr Spock's term "Fascinating"

Enjoy

This is great :)

It's a pity they didn't get the craters around Tranquility Base right. There a plenty of materials to help with that at the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal and probably other websites. I think they might have shown Neil Armstrong's run back to Little West crater a bit too far from Eagle.
