Japan has become the first country to record High Definition video of the moon by their lunar explorer Kaguya (Selene). You can read the story here and see the video here.

Unfortunately, the video is taken from such a high altitude that I cannot see the structures and bases on the moon that others are claiming that are there and is the reason why the US was told to "stay away" and not come back. Hmmmm.

Fantastic photos. Green cheese looks different in HD.

I know it takes more time to persuade the conspiracy_theory_loving people, though...

It's the first time I see a video of the Moon and it's in HD! U.S. Americans will try to do the same thing...

PS: At the end of the video, we can see everything is dark. Is it because the satellite entered on the dark face of the Moon?
