A more accurate claim would be: never-before-seen in real-time at that fidelity from lunar distance.


The article talks about the normal blackout window of 40 minutes on the far side. I'm confused about how they will get real time footage from that side. Is there a lunar relay satellite that wasn't mentioned?


Real time has to be about the most useless factor here. I don’t care if it’s a year delayed, it’s not like I was going to head up there myself.


It's not even going to be real time anyway, it's delayed a bit less than a couple of seconds ;-)

You're never going to be able to IPO your space startup with that attitude.
