Why are the LROC images so lousy?

Please, I beg everyone to visit that link, and check the satellite images of Google Maps, of exactly the SAME PLACE ON RIO DE JANEIRO that Phage has shown in the picture in the first post.

What makes you think the Google Map image is a satellite image?

Agreed

I looked for online confirmation but couldn't find any.

However I also looked at my house. You can clearly see the plumbing vent pipes. And I know they are 3 inches in diameter since I built the house. You can also see the Yagi antenna on my tower. Those aluminum tubes are no bigger than 1.5 inches. Also the silver of the power lines against the green leaves of the trees.
This pic is most likely from an aircraft.
