NASA's just-released video is cool enough to almost make you remember when the moon was a mysterious place that could make you want to learn more about it.

The GRAIL mission consisted to of two satellites which flew in formation at very low altitudes over the moon for almost a year, until NASA ran both of 'em into the ground up there last month.

Unfortunately, that part wasn't included in this week's video release.
