Moon Fly-Over 4K Test.

Moon Fly-Over 4K Test.
Equipment used ;

The $old 11" Celestron, but i am able to do this also with the 8" telescope, and Canon 550D.
Note; this is more editing software to get this angle of attack ( sony vegas ) Enjoy

The video raises so many questions in my mind about the moon and its real and true history. Do we have video of the dark side of the moon?

There is no other dark side of the Moon.

I tried a Youtube video at 4k resolution once, it gave me the "blue screen of death".

Great video, but I do wonder about the brown colour that is seen in almost every telescopic video of the Moon. What is it cause by?

Here's a screenie from your video, with colours normalised in Photoshop:

Why would that need to be done?

I'm trying to learn something by asking this. I don't see why an image captured on cam through a scope would give "abnormal" colors.

First of all, as other have pointed out, there is no "dark side" of the Moon (Pink Floyd Music notwithstanding). The far side of the Moon always faces away from earth, but it gets just as much sunlight as the other parts of the Moon. For example, during a "New Moon" as seen from Earth, the entire near side of the Moon (the side facing Earth) is facing away from the Sun, and thus is in darkness, but the entire far side is facing the sun, and is lit up by the Sun.

Anyway, there are videos and picture of the far side of the Moon. Here are some videos; this first one is from Apollo 10 as it orbited around the back of the Moon, with an Earthrise as it came around toward the near side.


and a video shot by the Japanese "Kaguya" probe

oooh...i bet you were literally itching to post that again!

Thanks for the impressive video OP, i'm grabbing it right now to keep.

The further away an object is, the more it's colour fades out.

I think the distance for loss of colour of the Earth is about 60,000 miles, although don't hold me to that.

When this far away, the Earth is mostly just white, not blue.

What? No I didn't see any base. Are you feeling ok?

But have you noticed how the Moon looks brown in the OP's video? It obviously doesn't appear like that to the naked eye (or in binoculars), unless it's very low on the horizon. Perhaps the OP did film it low on the horizon. But if he didn't, I'd like to know what causes this brown colouration.

The Moon is mostly grey, with subtle hues of blue and reddish due to varying mineral content. The image I posted aims to reflect that.

lol, was having fun, there.

reply to post by wildespace


Some colors can can be attributed to our atmosphere, others can come from lens of cameras.

So I did not see that big ufo that is supposed to be parked up there lol...

You might want to rethink that statement.

Color is the different wave length of the electromagnetic energy we call "light".



The brightness of that light can fade with distance, but if the light is at a wavelength to show the color green, it will still be green.

Even at almost 2,000 lightyears away, the pink in Orion's Nebula can be see (with a camera, this one film, not our eyes, as it's too dim):



Go out in the night sky and look up at Mars with your eyes: it will look orangish red, even though it's tens of millions of miles away.

So it's the intensity of the light....and our eyes. However, if you gather enough of the light (IE use a camera with a long enough exposure) and there is color there, you'll see it.

Colour doesn't fade out with distance. The whitish appearance of Earth in long-distance shots might be due to the cloud coverage, and due to the Earth's high brightness washing out blue colours in low-res images.

Here's a photo of Earth from Moon's orbit (the Moon is approximately 250,000 mi from Earth), taken by Apollo 8 astronauts:
