  • You are looking at the south pole of the moon grazing past a star. The star disappears behind a mountains and reappears in the valleys between.

    If you look closely sometimes the star is less bright. Yhe star is a double star and one component is behind the moon and the other component is in view.

    In this way the lunar features are mapped and very close stars are discovered.

    Hope this helps.
