A way to see 3D images without special screens or glasses. Just cross your eyes to overlap the two images.

Why are the pictures in this awkward angle?
The 3D effect is caused by the slightly different angle of each picture being interpreted by the brain as depth. I turned these two images 90 degrees so that the orbital movement of the spacecraft approximates that angle difference. The effect isn't perfect because the orbital movement is parallel the Moon's surface instead of at right angles.
