It really felt like you were orbiting the moon from 100 miles up

Mine, too, though I have to give honorable mention to
the 22mm Type 4 Nagler, and the 6mm Ethos, which is, to my eye, like a 100° orthoscopic in terms of contrast and image sharpness.
100 miles up? That would be a magnification of 2400x. If it's 200x, say, that's the equivalent of 1200 miles up. I know what you were trying to say, though--it's a fantastic lunar eyepiece.
