Yeah, that's beautiful. First quarter moon is the moon at its best. I'm always happy as a child when I know it's first (or last) quarter moon. Awesome video.
It's beautifull but why not the way it should be like in real? What you see at the left side of the Moon, is actually the top. People (who don't know ) would think that this is the Moon how it's really is.
@Simmonique. Sorry this reply is 5 months late! Thank you very much for commenting.
The moon's orientation is different depending on where you are viewing it from on earth and the time of day and a few other things.
From the southern hemisphere of the earth the moon is upside down compared to how it looks from the north and therefore from the equator the moon is on it's side.
There is no real top of the moon, up down, left and right are all relative.
If I had taken the video form near the equator, the moon would have been on it's side.
From here in Liverpool UK, I rotated the camera so the moon filled the screen and made it easier to move along the Lunar Terminator with a single button push of my telescope drive.
I also edited the video as a mirror image because the telescope reverses it.
Hope that makes it clear, thanks again and Best Wishes.
Thank for the explanation. I was a beginner (I'm so sorry), and I'm blushing now because it was a stupid question. I started months ago, so I was also interested in other video's. And I don't know if you noticed that most posters, pictures,photo's etc of the Moon is always with the 3 Mares (Serenitats, Tranquillitatis and Fecunditatis) at the right side...I know now how it works :-)
I have this scope,but its to bloody cold to go out.Viewing with eye is sharper but this is one of the clearest shots I have seen.More difficult to take one single shot,video taking many shots the eye pics up the sharper pics.Well done.
nice video.Please look at 1:50 - 2:00. Viewers might not realize it, but you actually recorded something interesting. At the center of the bottom, most center crater in the video, lies a huge structure/formation. It's tall enough that it extends beyond the crater's shadow and casts a shadow long enough to cross to the other end of the crater ring. A lot of people might not be entertained by Moon theory, but I thought your excellent capture helps with 'detailing' important, relative features.
@stratuszen what Moon Theory? The shadow is so big/long because the sun is very low. If you'd be standing next to this "structure" your shadow could be 20 meters long or even longer. Same thing happens here on Earth during sunrise and sunset when the sun is very low
Very nice video mate. Thanks.
