If you look close, you can see the spires of St. Basil’s.

I remember when the Mt Palomar telescope was the world's largest with its 200-inch (5-meter) mirror. Now there are 409 inch (10.4-meter) telescopes. The Hubble Telescope has a 94-inch (2.4-meter) mirror.

I’m thinking that a special effects filter on the camera might be a good guess.
