I was really expecting / hoping that they would release high resolution, quality images of these landing sites, particularly Apollo 11. Don't we have the technology to capture these sites in striking clarity, to finally put to rest the ridiculousness of claims we didn't get there when we did?

From the article: Though it had been expected that LRO would be able to resolve the remnants of the Apollo mission, these first images came before the spacecraft reached its final mapping orbit. Future LROC images from these sites will have two to three times greater resolution.
