    Sun angle profoundly affects the surface features of the Chang`e 3 landing site. When the Sun is higher in the sky (low incidence angle), the tracks left by the Yutu rover and the bright blast zone around the lander are most visible.Sun angle profoundly affects the surface features of the Chang'e 3 landing site.
