A wide field shot showing the path of the HST and the moon is probably best suited to HDR treatment - take a nicely exposed moon shot to superimpose over the blown out moon... you'd still have the glare around the moon to contend with though...

I just fired up Starry Night Pro and Jupiter is only 43° above the horizon for the scheduled HST near miss – this may be obscured from my usual set up spot as we have a stupendously gianormous gum tree blocking most of that region, up to around 70°.
Oh well, at least I should get to see the HST/Moon pairing.
