Photographer captures plane passing across the moon

A photographer laboured for months to click a snap of a plane that flies across the moon.

Christopher Tomas had to wait until the Qantas Dash 8's flight path coincided with the Moon's correct phase in Queensland, Australia.

"It flies over every day at 5.30pm,” The Sun quoted him as saying.

“I've seen it fly through the Moon a few times,” he added.
