Video with pictures from amatuer astronomers, thought it was relevant to show exactly how easy it is to see the surface of the moon (35 seconds ish) and why it would be so difficult for aliens to be there without being noticed and faking moon landings etc.

Pictures are also nice outside of that.

Impossible to see the man made objects on the Moon from the Earth without a massive telescope and adaptive optics.

I could have won the solar competition with a decent picture of the Sun and a filled circle on MS Paint:

Some amazing shots there, but some of these 'amateurs' are clearly using tens of thousands of pounds worth of equipment.

Hardly what 'most' people could achieve.

I agree, you need some amazing glass to get as close as some of the shots in that video

This is at 300mm

My point was that the government can't stop you taking pictures of the moon.

I know the challenges of taking the pictures.

Do you want to borrow my helmet tomorrow or are you going to continue to treat me like an average user of this website?
