Chang'e 3 Lunar Mission Data

Accepted submission by tonyPick at 2016-01-30 10:14:30
Science

At The Planetary Society is the news that data from the Chinese Chang'e 3 lunar exploration mission is now available for download [planetary.org], with Emily Lakdawalla providing a mirror of Lander and Rover imaging data.

So, space fans, without further ado, here, for the first time in a format easily accessible to the public, are hundreds and hundreds of science-quality images from the Chang'e 3 lander and Yutu rover. I don't usually host entire data sets (PDS-formatted and all) but I made an exception in this case because the Chinese website is a bit challenging to use.
