Those at the south of the equator (Australia, New Zealand, etc), see a slightly different view of the moon. The Tycho Crater (that big crater at the bottom) is actually seen at the top of the moon in the southern hemisphere.

Its always a fun little nit of mine when viewing a Hollywood movie whose location is supposed to be the Southern Hemisphere, to be greeted with a shot of the northern Hemisphere moon.
