KAGUYA taking "Earth-rise" by HDTV (Nov. 7, 2007)

[question everything]

Between 2007 and 2009, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) captured more than 600 photos and videos of the moon with an orbiting Selenological and Engineering Explorer (SELENE) mission spacecraft, informally called Kaguya. Named after a lunar princess from Japanese lore, Kaguya had 2.2 megapixel HDTV sensors onboard, giving us some incredible HD firsts from the moon.

This 2021-updated Earthrise in 4K UHD video, which was denoised, repaired, graded, retimed, and upscaled by visual artist and space enthusiast Seán Doran, shares 11 minutes of Earth as it rises and falls behind the moon’s horizon.
