Abstract
The Laser Altimeter (LALT) on board the main orbiter of KAGUYA (SELENE) started nominal observation on December 30, 2007 for mapping the lunar topography. As of March 31, 2008, LALT has obtained about 6.7 million topographic data and the return rate is 97%. Several qualifications of the data to produce reliable topography are now in progress. The present status and preliminary results are reported in this article.
