The whole video made by snapshot of Deep Impact/Epoxi looking back at the Earth-Moon system over a small period of time can be found here. Enjoy!

CREDITS: We extend special thanks to the EPOXI flight team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory for operation of the spacecraft, for design and implementation of the Earth observing sequences, and for downlink of the data. We also thank Lucy McFadden and Tilak Hewagama (UMD) and Timothy Livengood (USRA), for image deconvolutions and color co-registration on preliminary renderings of the lunar transit data.
