I'm the developer of ExoAtlas Explorer, a 3D solar system that runs in the browser. The new version lets you fly from orbit all the way down to 1 km above the Moon. The clip is the app itself, past the Earth and down to Tycho crater, recorded frame by frame with the panels hidden. The whole surface is imagery from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (about 100 m per pixel). Over the six Apollo landing sites it gets as sharp as 0.5 m per pixel. Below about 200 km, heights from the LOLA laser altimeter raise crater rims and mountains off the ground. 1,056 places are marked: crewed and robotic landings, impact sites, hardware left on the surface and 975 named features. Click one for its coordinates, elevation, source and how precisely its position is known. A link can reopen an exact view: the end of the clip over Tycho, or Apollo 11 from 3 km at the moment of landing. Honest limits: outside the Apollo sites the imagery is about 100 m per pixel, so it goes soft below about 25 km. The terrain is finest (474 m between height samples) around 20 well-known places, Tycho among them, and coarser elsewhere, so small craters come from the imagery rather than the shape of the ground. The polar caps use the LROC polar mosaics as imaged, baked shadows included. It's free, with no install and no account needed. I'd love to hear what you'd want marked next, or what looks wrong.
