I've been wondering about this lunar-eclipse-from-the-moon image for some
years, so I'm looking forward to whatever you can get :)

P.S. I'm also glad this raised some interest. Another thing I've been
thinking about for years is how cool a "bird flight simulator" would be.
Think of it, instead of controlling a plane you'd control a bird, the wing
flapping frequency, the tail... there would be different kinds of birds and
different "missions" (a migration with a duck, capturing a pigeon with a
hawk...) And the scenery could be anything from a city full of buildings to
a garden with flowers (for a hummingbird)... and rendered with POV-Ray :D
