Yes, it's true. But can we put an WMS shape at background?
Just a ignorant question.

While I like the idea quite a bit, I think I will wait for a bit to
start mapping for roads and POI on the moon.
More seriously, such a map is not really useful as OSM by default is not
storing landscape. You will just have a blank map with some name tags if
you don't have images in the end. It would be quite useless.

Good luck using ultrasonic on the moon.


Rock actually works quite well as medium. Not really useful for a 
handheld device, but anything well and rigidly connected to the moon 
surface could use this.

Better, pop Sinatra's "Fly me to the moon" into your music player and sing 
along...


Fly me to the moon
let me get traces among those stars
let me see how mapnik renders
on Jupiter and Mars

In other words, upload nodes
In other words, render tiles
