Full Moon Silhouettes
“a real time video of the moon rising over the Mount Victoria Lookout in Wellington, New Zealand. People had gathered up there this night to get the best view possible of the moon rising. I captured the video from 2.1km away on the other side of the city. It’s something that I’ve been wanting to photograph for a long time now, and a lot of planning and failed attempts had taken place. Finally, during moon rise on the 28th January 2013, everything fell into place and I got my footage.”
“The video is as it came off the memory card and there has been no manipulation whatsoever. Technically it was quite a challenge to get the final result. I shot it on a Canon ID MkIV in video mode with a Canon EF 500mm f/4L and a Canon 2x extender II, giving me the equivalent focal length of 1300mm.”

Now that space experts have a better grasp of where the water on the moon came from, we can divert our attention to a more fundamental question: How did the moon itself even get there?
Multiple studies published this week shed new light on a long-standing — but flawed — theory that the moon was birthed from a massive, high-impact collision between a primitive version of Earth and a smaller planet. Was the moon once part of Earth?

Pacman caught munching Mimas: In March Pacman was spotted on the surface of one of the solar system’s most striking moons. Saturn’s moon Mimas had previously been compared to the Death Star because of a large scar on its surface called the Herschel crater. NASA’s Cassini probe created the best temperature map yet of the moon, using data collected during a fly-by in February. It revealed a pattern that resembled Pacman eating a dot centred on the distinctive crater. (source)
The Moon Museum is a small ceramic wafer three-quarters of an inch by half an inch in size, containing artworks by six prominent artists from the late 1960s. This wafer was supposedly covertly attached to a leg of the Intrepid landing module, and subsequently left on the moon during Apollo 12. The moon museum is considered the first Space Art object. While it is impossible to tell if the Moon Museum is actually on the moon without sending another mission to look, many other personal effects were smuggled onto the Apollo 12 lander and hidden in the layers of gold blankets that wrapped parts of the spacecraft.
