RSHMoon:

Path: SC/Ephem

% Generates a topographic map of the moon using spherical harmonics. 

   Type RSHMoon for a demo.

   This uses Clementine data. The highest harmonic is 72. 

   If s and c are not entered it will load the lunar surface coefficients
   each time is called. You can load the coefficients yourself using

     [s,c] = LoadLunarTopography( nH );

   Since version 2.
