Oops, wrong planet!

How about keeping this thread for when the video turns up?

Huh? Am I missing something, here?

We're talking moon....right?

Irma,

I can now see, this thread is aimed at the 'view of Earth' aspect of the
Moon orbiting satellite, SELENE .

I have no problem posting that particular sequence here, when it is released.

I mistakenly thought the Earthrise was included in the video posted in the other thread.
(Must get more sleep )

Thanks for making me dig a little deeper.

I dont get it why have they released footage of the moon before footage of the earth??

Hey Jbird....

We've all done it! well, I have anyway.... cheers!

HD video here

Download it and set aspect ratio to 16:9. I just watch this in my HD TV and it's amazing

Cheers

What you've posted is the HD Video recently shot from the moon, not the first video taken on the way to the moon, 68,000 miles from Earth. That's the historic video - that's the one we can't seem to find.
