I wonder what the three grooves are? (Arrowed)
1 pixel is about 0.26 arc seconds (0.00007259 of a degree.)
When the pic was taken, the moon was 372550 Km from me. A quick bit of trigonometry reveals that 0.26arc sec represents 472 meters
Each pixel is 472x472 meters. I don't think we'll see the moon landers just yet but those trails are about 4pix wide, so nearly 2km wide.
I need a bigger telescope...
