  • @FrontCortex Pretty sure our moon is so far away that it was outside of the viewing window for this video. I'm no expert, but that's why I think the moon isn't in this shot.

  • That was beautiful, wish the video was longer! Would have loved to see the approach & fly-by. Also, where's our Moon?
