Another nice video but how about an answer to the question on your 4k Moon about it being 4k?

Beautiful images as always, Bosb33r!

The Moon is too far away to see them with telescopes. Consider the reverse situation -- i.e., seeing your car in your driveway from a telescope on the Moon. However, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) in orbit around the moon is close enough (and has a good enough camera) to see the landing sites

Here's one of the sites (Apollo 15) taken from the LRO satellite:



And here is the Apollo 17 site:

They had to adjust the contrast, brightness, etc. to make the footpaths show up, so that may be why they look odd.

The Chinese rover is hundreds of km away from any of the landing sites. Even if it was working (and it seems to be dead) it could not reach those sites. Rovers don't rove that far.

Oh, by all means; tell us what an orbital image from a line-scan camera with a resolution of ~0.5 meters-per-pixel of a manned lunar landing site should look like.

Do tell!

Youtube is not letting me look at the lunar video, but I can see the solar video. I have to say... that is one EPIC JET CONTRAIL you got there. It's probably a $1 million dollar shot. Very nicely done. I wish I had a million to give you.
