That goat is terrifying.

As far as the grimaces go, I thought it just depended on how much effort he was putting into things. Even Superman shows signs of visible straining when lifting something especially heavy. Depending on what source material you're looking at, psionics might have very visible cues like sizzling...

I'm not an astronomer, but that sounds like pretty standard moon stuff to me.
