Waxing Gibbous Moon and HC-130 King

Melbourne, Florida photographer Michael Seeley spends a ton of time looking at the moon, but says it's the first time he happened to catch an airplane-lunar transit early in April 2018. After capturing the shot, he got in touch with the 920th Rescue Wing public affairs office to share the photo. Upon close inspection you can see the loading ramp was open while the Reserve Citizen Airmen piloting the HC-130N on a local training mission crossed the moon. (Photo courtesy Michael Seeley)
