Superb! Yes, is an excellent animation. I only can think of that old Cat Stevens Song "Moon Shadow" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2e-A3UUjkZ0

What a shot! The first thing I noticed were the details, and then I immediately went looking for Crissium: I hear real-estate is cheap there! So many wonderful craters to re-discover! I love ever bit of this and the cloud motion is superb. This is brilliant in so many ways!
