32% Waxing Crescent, Missing Light Beams, Aldebaran, & Sirius
Aldebaran is the star I kept banging on about that was right below the Moon. It was quite unusual that the video of the P900 picked it up in the blue sky as it's very hard for this camera to capture stars like that via video mode in the daylight.
Another interesting note is the usual light beams that normally shoot out from that one crater didn't show up. Maybe somebody finally turned off the lights (lol).
Sirius did eventually make an appearance also.
Sorry for the length. :)
