Totally fictitious of course, but kind of a neat animation showing what it would look at if the moon was in the same orbital altitude as the International Space Station. If the moon was really put this close, I think it would be well inside the Roche Limit and would be torn apart and turn into a ring similar to Saturn's though.
Just imagine the daily solar and lunar eclipses, horrible light pollution and really messy tides!
