Update 3/01/06: version 1.2.1 released
Version 1.2.1 includes a complete install/uninstall and some impact sites, with improved icons for impact sites and a bug fix. See the Add-on page for details.
Thanks to Google's tribute to the Apollo landings, I've been able to create an add-on for the moon that illustrates all the apollo landings.
<s>Note that the locations are just estimates (especially 12 & 14), I compared google moon with WW to pinpoint the locations, so they're not exact.</s> The locations are now exact. Also note that Apollo 13 didn't land because an explosion forced its early return (I didn't forget it. )
The icons are linked to NASA's history pages, and the descriptions are "borrowed" from those pages. So without further ado, here you go. Download and run the installer to enjoy.
Note: The download link was down, but is back up as of 10/18/06. It may be version 1.2, if so version 1.2.1 will be uploaded shortly. Thanks to pangloss for providing me a copy.
