Re: Actually...

AO works on small fields compared to that picture of the moon. Tip-tilt correction would be helpful to counteract the wind jitter, but the real fun for objects like the moon is trying techiniques related to 'speckle imaging'. The trick is to make many short exposures then combine them in clever ways to produce an image that is better than a single exposure of the period of the sum of the short exposures.
