I am currently working on an essay about the use of the moon in fictional media such as video games, movies, anime, books, and comics. It would be a huge help to have r/moon help me discover these stories.

I am not looking for any fictional media where the moon is merely in the background. The moon needs to be explicitly shown to be an important element in the history/lore of the plot.

Some examples include:

The Legend of Zelda: Majoras mask Cannot have a better candidate. Video game where the plot follows Link as he is turned into a small wood-based creature known as a deku as he tries to stop skull kid from bringing the moon down to earth to crash it.

Nier: Automata Video game where the plot follows humanoid androids 2B and 9S as they fight aliens invading earth. The last remaining humans are said to have set up an organization known as the army of humanity located on the moon.

Neon Genesis: Evangelion Anime series and franchise following the life of Shinji, a young boy who controls a giant robot to fight giant alien-like creatures known as angels. Lore of the show has the first event feature the creation of the moon, as the egg that houses the creator of angels crash landed on earth thousands of years ago which created the moon from the earth debris. One of the most important characters of the show, Rei, is shown to have intense symbolism and cinematic shots of the moon and herself.

If anybody in this subreddit is familiar with any fictional media featuring the moon as a plot device I would greatly appreciate it if you were to comment. Please and thank you :)

I took this picture about 15 years ago. I know it's not good quality but I was surprised at the time that the plane's trajectory almost perfectly lined with the moon.

I wanna go late night driving and i know a road where the moon is perfectly aligned with the front of my car so its just straight cruising, you, the night, and the beautiful moon. problem is, idk when its gonna be low enough so that i can see it align in front of me. what do you think is the best time to leave and drive so that the moon is at its lowest or low enough to see out of my windshield? for context i live in the midwest.

I had edited this in Lightroom seeing if I could try out something different

I recently shot a photo of the moon, after during editing I saw some dots scattered around, one red and one blue in particular. Could it just be image sensor noise or something else? I shot with my xt3, I forgot what focal length, open aperture, and 80 iso.

Captured this on 16/06, there was a rainbow around moon and the clouds around it had a dramatic effect which appeared to look like an eye. Looked so much better in person. Beautiful and scary.
