At the end of March, photographer Alexandru Barbovschi photographed the split second it took for the International Space Station to pass in front of the moon. After perfectly capturing the rare passing, he spent a few more minutes taking additional images to create what is known as a "Mineral Moon."
Sacramento, California-based amateur astrophotographer Andrew McCarthy is a master of shooting amazing space photos from his own backyard, and he's back again with this beautiful high-res photo of the moon created by combining 250,000 individual shots.
Sacramento-based astrophotography enthusiast Andrew McCarthy extracted color data from 150,000 photos of the moon to create this enhanced photo showing all the different splashes of color on the surface left by impacts of different minerals.
