Scientific paper

A digital file of the normal albedo of the moon has been produced at a resolution of about 1/550 of a lunar diameter (about 6.3 km). The file was produced from five photographs taken with a 61-cm reflector. No mosaicking was necessary. Spatial control is selenodetic rather than landmark-morphologic. Photometric control is provided through a combination of electrography and regular photoelectric photometry. Pixel photometric function corrections are employed. Brief discussion of the scientific implications of the frequency histogram is offered, and the negligibility of lunar-limb darkening below epsilon = 77 deg is affirmed.
