Original Note:
The moon is not transparent. You cannot see stars behind it. The unsourced, unreferenced, image does not depict a star behind the moon. Anyone with a cheap telescope can witness stars blocked passing behind the moon yourself. It is called Occultation. https://youtu.be/rm9bovjIZKY?si=K6gQS00cLDnbpFNG https://www.space.com/33946-occultations.html
