Given the lunar eclipse that's immanent, why don't we have any rovers on the moon capable of taking a video like this? :

It feels weird that the "Pale Blue Dot" photo was so long ago, and this type of imagery would do worlds of good for NASA or any other space-based business. We have Mars rovers, why so few moon rovers getting crazy celestial pictures / video like this? Is the mundane pursuit of minerals and H3 more what the money behind the missions cares about?

Blue Ghost Mission 1 is currently active on the surface. It's a lander, not a rover, but that doesn't make a difference here. I don't know if it has any Earth-facing cameras now.
