Downloaded this noncredible gem a while back. I believe it came from a 3D artist showcasing their new collection “Moon War” of 3D space models. I can’t for the life of me find the original source right now though
I managed to get a similar shot with my phone. Yours has a ton more detail though. Seeing Jupiter right next to the moon was nuts. It’s not visible in this photo though.
What phone was this taken with? Because some phones have a “moon mode” where they replace the actual moon with an image that’s far better than what the actual camera sensor of the phone would be able to capture.
They are usually shooting through a telescope, or are using a phone that “enhances” moon shots through AI (i.e. replaces the original image with an AI generated image)
A big part is exposure, you need to really crank down the exposure so the Moon isn't just an overexposed white circle. Having a phone with optical zoom is also important to get a decent resolution image.
Edit: side note: the two actually have the same etymological root, the Latin infans meaning “infant”. It were the Spanish that somehow turned infante (originally just “youth”) into “foot soldier”
Also, fun fact, infans comes from in- (negative prefix) + fari (to speak); “one that does not speak”.
I have a toddler, I totally can see them discharing a firearm. It’s not shocking on deadeye Janet, it’s shocking on the now dead parent who didn’t safely store their firearms.
Yeah that surprises me less given a parent seeing a child waive a firearm would be very nervous, same as I’d be if my kid was wielding a paring knife or the big knife with her sibling or cousin.
In that case I have good news for you: the Gospel of Matthew is not really written by an author called Matthew. It’s by an anonymous author and much later attributed to a guy called Matthew.
Sure, there is a chance that the anonymous author was also called Matthew but I think it’s small enough for you and all the other Matthew-phobes who downvoted my comment to undo your misdeeds and seek redemption.
Your comment has more downvotes than the post, which I think is actually primarily downvoted because people don’t think it qualifies as me_irl. So I suspect it’s just the strong (often thoughtless) antireligious sentiment around here. I guess that it’s pretty inherent to social media that people refuse to think.
