@bluejay I missed that, unfortunately, since I was visiting part of my family, but I can imagine how emotional it must have been to watch.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/116488045155292546A #Falcon9 rocket will strike the #Moon at 2.43 km a second. #NASA and #China are deep in the planning stages for establishing semi-permanent outposts. As part of that, the cadence of launches on Falcon 9 and other rockets to the Moon is likely to increase by something like a factor of 10#SpaceDebris

@repepo Thanks for the info. That is a serious camera and lens. Amazing timelapse. I also do night sky timelapses but with a phone or a Osmo Pocket 3. Nowhere near your gear but I love to see such timelapses...Yours is truly mesmerizing!

Ihr seht gerade die schmale #Mondsichel am Westhimmel? Es lohnt sich, mit einem Fernglas hinzuschauen, sie steht nämlich direkt oberhalb der #Plejaden!#Astronomie #Astronomy #Moon #Pleiades

This video isn't an uninterrupted timelapse but rather combines several intermittent image sequences that were captured during the flyby. It was originally published by NASA on Instagram. Most of these frames have not been published in full quality yet.https://www.instagram.com/reel/DW7AKrtjQQl/I spent a lot of time stabilizing the images since the original video was very jumpy and flickery. I also used frame interpolation to make the motion in the video a bit smoother.

@hausderastronomie Oh, super!
