I admit, I don't know anything about astronomy, and I haven't seen this video yet--the materials weren't available when they sent me the press package. But the photos National Geographic sent me are so stunning, that I felt I couldn't just set them aside.
This photo is of earthrise over the moon, and it was taken by the Kaguya (Selene) lunar orbiter, launched by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency on September 14, 2007. Direct from the Moon is supposed to show new images and if the photos they sent me are any indication, we should pencil it into our schedules.
