"Artist’s Impression of Asteroid 1999 KW4"

Note Earth and the Moon in the distant background.

Again, this is not the actual asteroid and its smaller orbiting companion.

They couldnt use the zoom on their phone, in Pro Mode, and saved it as a raw file, then convert it to jpeg for a much sharper image, using Photoshop?
