Hmm, about the rotation... (Destiny)

I'm pretty sure it's dependent on where you are, latitudinally speaking...

Check the view from my city:

It's clearly rotate about 90 degrees from the real-life shot in the video.
Not only that, but Luna isn't perfectly tidally locked with us, so it gradually rotates its face in relation to us, in contrast to the idea that it is always the same. Granted, takes hundreds of years to change a few degrees, but it happens.
