So how did i do this? You may well ask.*

*Or maybe not :-)

The LEM (abliet not brilliant! But the ONLY one i could find for fs2004) is from HERE

The scenery, well, where do you find a moon, space, and an earth? You cant find all three in fs2004, but you can if you download THIS

Its a bit odd, but involves flying inside a supposed NASA building training for the lunar missions in the LLRV, a flying bedstead type thing. So basically my shot is composed inside a building with a fake moonscape already lined up!!

I slewed the LEM inside and used fsrecorder to fly alongside it to get the angle and shot.....

There is a LEM for FSX and i tried the same stunt in that but failed.....

I figured most of the usual wonders on earth would be used in this competition, So hopefully the earth, and the moon, both natural wonders, and the 'man made' factor of the moon missions would be somthing different.

And now i will shut up :-).

Oh man, All the images are failing out for me.  But knowing you, I just can't wait to see it!  Even more from hyperprep111's response!
In other words, I think I'll go ahead and tell you:

AMAZING!!!!   until I can see it to say even more positive things!

Oh!  It just worked!  Amazing!  I love that view of the moon and landing craft!  By the way, so that download gets rid of the 99,999 ft limit? :-?

The rules don't allow shots from other sims

Or am I missing something here?
This isn't FS 2004 is it?

This is Fs2004. Honestly. Ill post some of the 'building' that i took this in later Check the links in the original post also 8-)

I see..........my apologies

I thought Lunar Pilot was a stand-alone sim

In that case.......fantastic shot, very original 8-) 8-) 8-)

todayshorse has really gone a full circle

Back from my suborbital 'pop', added some shots in the screenshot showcase to show how this is possible in fs9....

Thanx for the comments fellas.

holy cow awesome shot...now this is what I call thinking outside of the box 8-)

correction:  INSIDE the box.

LOL! 

Has there ever been a screenshot contest with two shots from space in it?   8-)

I highly doubt it.

I know I had taken a shot of earth and posted it before these two in the Screenshot showcase saying I should have entered it, but I doubt they took my idea.

This was one of my first contest entries.....the theme was "My Favorite Place to Fly"

I had to dig deep to find it:http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1284933177
