Apparently those pictures were taken from 2.5lakh (250,000) km away by the TMC which has 5m res. I doubt they would be much better than the ones we've seen taken from down here.

Can anyone help me understand why the polar regions are 30 degrees cooler than the dark side of the moon?
I would have thought that the dark side should be the coolest region, the poles still might get a tiny amount of insolation.

Ahh I see, so its the residual energy from insolation.
I wonder if there is a temperate zone constantly on the border between light and dark. Could be a decent place for a base.
