You are quite welcome, sir. I do appreciate your kind words. :thumbsup:

@mykle1 Unfortunately you are right. Web pages does not work.
Traceroute tells me that they are firewalled

Since we are only talking about the image url, perhaps we can work around it. Here’s where you get to do some work. If you can find another url that offers current images of the moon and works for users outside the US, I will incorporate into the module based on the config language.

Fun Moon Fact
We all know there was a man on the moon, but did you know that there is one who stayed there? Dr. Eugene Shoemaker, a Geological Surveyor, who educated the Apollo mission astronauts about craters, never made it into space himself, but it had always been one of his dreams. He was rejected as an astronaut because of medical problems. After he died, his ashes were placed on board the Lunar Prospector spacecraft on January 6, 1999, which was crashed into a crater on the moon on July 31, 1999. The mission was to discover if there was water on the moon at the time, but it also served to fulfill Dr Shoemaker’s last wish. -
@mykle1 You must be bored tonight…LOL

True, but I did find it interesting.

Something like this?
Well, not really. I don’t think I was clear enough. Yes, these links are to websites that contain pictures of the moon but not directly to the pictures. I did dig into the first site and isolated the url to today’s moon phase picture. Try it.
http://lunaf.com/img/moon/phase-13.png
Tomorrow that url will change, as will the image name.
The API url that is currently being used is static. It never changes. Only the image updates, not the url itself.
So, that’s what we need. A url to a current image of the moon (not a website containing moon pictures) and it has to update just the image. I’ll look when I can. You can still look. :-)
