KAGUYA Impact

With only about 45 minutes until the planned impact of the KAGUYA spacecraft onto the surface of the Moon, I hope our friends in Asia have clear skies to observe the event. In Denmark, the Moon will not be visible until several hours after the impact.

In the mean time we can enjoy these amazing videos taken at 15 and 20 km above the lunar surface (if I understand the Japanese text correctly ;-)
I guess these are the first high definition videos taken so close to the lunar surface. Thank you JAXA for sharing all your fantastic high definition videos via YouTube!
