Description

Incredible photos from the farside of the Moon have been transmitted back to Earth, let's look through some of the best photos and also understand why the stars of space aren't as readily visible in the photos as many people may think they would be.

I apologize in advance everyone for the comment section. I'm not going to moderate it other than the basic moderation that I already have in place. Consider it like viewing a cross-section of a certain sample of humanity. It's also interesting how all the content I've made thus far regarding Artemis II has been brigaded by people yelling "FAKE" instantly after the video was published, in a timeframe too short to even watch the 10 min video, and then as time goes on and the brigade leaves the conversation becomes more normal. Keep that in mind!

I understand people’s scrutiny. The gov doesn’t give people any reason to trust them, and practically anyone can access the world’s info on demand. Combine that with how easy it can be to fake or edit media, and being a skeptic makes sense.

For what it's worth, I was born in 1951. We lived in a more rural area. I remember the sky being a much deeper blue, and if you looked hard enough, you could see stars on a clear day, in a cloudless sky, on a sunny day, and point them out. My siblings and I, and our cousins, would lay in the tall grass of a field and do just that.

We apologize for forgetting to add stars to our fabulous moon pictures, I have spoken to our composite artists and all future recreations will include stars.

While 3I/ATLAS made its closest approach to Jupiter on March 16, 2026, no spacecraft was positioned to intercept it or take photographs of the actual event. There were theoretical proposals to redirect the Juno spacecraft to intercept the comet near Jupiter, but that maneuver never took place. Astronomers have even publicly lamented that we missed the opportunity for a close-up encounter
