Every time this pic gets reposted I wonder how could the Earthshine on the Moon be so bright while the landscape is so dark. Almost like it's...

The Earthshine isn’t very bright. The thin crescent on the bottom is much brighter as it’s in direct sunlight. This is a very simple photograph taken with a high ISO and exposure of at least a couple seconds (judging by star movement and experience).

You take a photo just as you've described and see if you can get only the Earthshine that bright but not the sky or the landscape. We'll be here.

The sky and landscape are much darker than the Earthshine once twilight has ended. There are endless examples available.

Because the sun was shining on the moon. All of the lunar missions were during lunar day so the sun was always shining.

Conspiracy people don’t science very well.

Moon also looks so huge. Need Neil D. Tyson to spoil it for all of us.

Cameras suck at picking up contrast so that’s why the moon might appear so bright.
The moon is close ish to the horizon so it looks bigger because it has something to be compared to.
Ps I have no idea if this image is not a real picture but those are most likely explanations

Earthshine is nowhere near that bright against such a dark sky. I've taken pictures. That's not how contrast works.
Skyguy6 t1_iuipgif wrote
Could have the contrast edited on a picture. Idk

It's a composite. Parts of different photos put together in one frame. It's neato but fake.

Would it be possible for humans to build and install an artificial moon ring?

I feel like if the moon actually had a ring around it, it would be terrifyingly cool
also really cool shot!
