Lunnar occultation of Venus - approach phase

That's certainly further proof as to how extremely bright the planet
Venus actually is compared to the illuminated surface of our
physically dark, somewhat salty and otherwise downright nasty moon.

Especially if having been utilizing an unfiltered camera/lens and if
being situated upon the naked moon would have to make Venus all that
much more so vibrant than depicted by these nifty images obtained by
Pete Lawrence "Lunnar occultation of Venus - approach phase".

Too bad the best our hocus-pocus NASA/Apollo wizards could manage is
having included a few rather dull images of Earth along with Apollo
stuff illuminated as though by way of a Xenon lamp spectrum, without
their having any hint of raw solar UV or of the secondary/recoil worth
of having anything near-blue as skewed about their Kodak moments at
that.

In other honest to God words, we didn't actually walk on that moon of
ours, did we. It's not possible to have walked on our physically dark
and nasty moon without their having gotten a few FOVs worth of having
included Venus.
