Actually, that would be miles, Klms would be 384,400.

I disagree, I think it could be done using something black and large, say a lid from a plastic garbage bin (or bigger) placed much further away, say 30-50 metres and then use a long focal length lens and zoom right in, this is how they make the moon look rediculously large in movies, place the actors 100 metres from the lens in front of a rising moon and zoom right in. Of course this is tricky if you want the moon at a high altitude.

Good luck, Dennis.
