This is also outside the realm of normal poster collecting but I think it's an amazing piece.
It's a detailed map of the surface of the moon that identifies ever feature. Addionally shown are a series of beautiful diagrams that illustrate how eclipses form, the moon's role in tides, the moon's orbit around the earth as the earth rotates around the sun, and, at the very bottom, a scale drawing of the path the Apollo rocket was to take on its voyage.
