The Moon was up over Townsville at that moment: a waning crescent, 15% lit, 21° above the horizon toward the east — the poster draws it where it really stood.

Printing it at home? There is a second paper: the same sky as ink on white. A full-bleed night A3 bands on a home printer and drinks a cartridge; the ink one does not. Same price, pick either on the next page.
