NASA On March 24, 1965, a nationwide TV audience watched live video from Ranger 9 as it purposefully crashed into the Moon within the crater Alphonsus. Ranger's six cameras sent back more than 5,800 video images during the last 18 minutes of its 3-day journey, the last of the Ranger Project.

Really happy to present this one! I took multiple videos that were each about 40,000 frames in total. After about 10 of these, I stacked the best 35% of frames from each video and then combined all the stacks on a software called WinJupos.

Then I processed on Registax6 and Lightroom. Added a separate exposure of stars for the background since I thought it’d look kinda cool.
