COSMIC MESSAGE

On August 20, the Tiangong Space Station crossed the face of the Moon. This image, taken from Australia, captures the fleeting moment. The space station, orbiting Earth at 400 kilometers, took less than a second to transit the lunar disk. The Moon itself is some 400,000 kilometers away from us.
