It was once proposed to do an automated search of images from the

Did anything ever come of this? If not, did anyone ever begin a
_manual_ search of the 620,000 high-resolution visible-light
Clementine images? This sounds about right for a small NASA grant or
for a volunteer, distributed project among interested space cadets.

Manual search isn't needed. The L5 society Portland Chapter
http://www.oregonl5.org got data and image software years ago but couldn't
get it running. Legal or technical problems or both.


Um, then it sounds like a manual search _is_ needed (or some other software method).
