Indeed it is! It’s also incredible what modern technology can do with astrophotography. I have a planetary camera that is capable of taking from 136 to 200 photos a second for as many seconds or minutes as you want.The computer software will pick the best (sharpest) images and “stack” them for maximum detail.
