Anything that doesn't show a tower will not be sufficient to fill your request.
What is obtainable from that site is not very impressive or even sufficiently detailed to qualify as satisfactory to fill my request, as you probably know.
The very high resolution images on Google Earth are taken from aircraft. Satellite images for commercial use are restricted by the DoD to a resolution of 0.5 meters. Images from LROC have resolutions as high as 0.25 meters.
where even google has far more impressive pics with resolutions making individual houses and cars visible on earth at resolutions far greater.
So why these crappy wide-area low detail pics?

These are the pictures i am talking about, they seem to not be available to the public..
Nasa appears to be the only ones who can provide a high resolution picture and with all the satelites sent by them to moon in past to survey its features i dont think its a unrealistic request they provide one if requested by public (after all Nasa is funded by US public taxpayers).
Did you ask?
No i havent because i know they are not been made available in the Public arena yet.
Really?
Do you know the coordinates of the location? Even roughly? Have you bothered to do any research of your own at all?

You haven't really looked, have you?
Why not start with Google Moon? It's good for a quick survey of the area.

You are not seeing high resolution LROC images by using the base map. Take some time to learn how the website works.
I have looked, however there is no use wasting too much time on the LROC site as at max zoom, this is the scale given
Perhaps because there is no "shard" there
No i dont but websites identify is in image Lunar Orbiter frame LO-III-84-M. And obviously seeing the video in page 1 some people have narrowed down where it on moon because they have also managed to get a low resolution picture of it.

Thank you, it seems to have worked extremely well, i got 500kb/s throughout the download and i now have both files. !
I also took the liberty to re-upload it to youtube.
Here it is.
It appears to me the answer to the shard mystery is two fold. 1. Identifying a coordinate location. 2. then have Nasa provide public on request high detailed pictures of say 10 squred kilometers around that point.
Sheesh. I linked the map here:
www.abovetopsecret.com...
I make the location of the "shard" to be at about 7ºW 3.5ºS.
I gave you the source for the high resolution LROC images.
Do something on your own...please. Narrow it down. Look for the image(s) you want. But the "shard" is enormous. It would not take a very high resolution image to find it. ote]

Seeing as the structures often appear right at the horizon of the moon where it enters into the dark side
