Floating in space, a sea of wetness, a sea of clouds... Where is the Flamouro Highlands, where Apollo's ships landed? This photo was taken by pressing the smartphone against the eyepiece of the telescope.

Wow, what an amazing photo. It so cool to see different angles like this. Back in America the orientation of the stars is different and it makes two very different skies (I think I prefer this angle more personally). This Myoko Sunshine Land looks interesting though. Might be a fun place to go on a date. Or if you have kids obviously it'd be great for that. Niigata is just a little outside of day travel distance though so I'd love to visit here, but it'd be in the future definitely. Maybe I can get a decent camera and try to start taking some pictures like this, although I doubt I'd be able to snap anything this good lol
