This is a video i made overlaying the GRAIL (Gravity Recover and Interior Laboratory) Gravity Field of the moon map over the Moon (optical) map.
The alignment is not perfect but it's pretty good.
I didn't like the plain ole Grail map rotation done by NASA so i made my own
To give you an idea of the sensitivity, the scale is in milli Galileos
Gal is a unit of acceleration, 1 Gal is equal to 1cm/s^2
1 mGal is equal to 0.01 mm/s^2
animation modeling created by me, on 3dstudio max
