You mean the Apollo 11 impact site. If there were a landing sire, as
such there should have be a number of bright and very shiny items that
would have made it easy for the Apollo mission to have recorded a very
bright 10 meter pixel that marked the exact spot, or as of the last 4
months at 50 km would have made that a 5 meter pixel.
