Undocumented media type "other" #132

Description

@GKnirps

Today, my script for the APOD API failed to parse the response. Reason was "media_type": "other".

Full response for today is:

{
  "date": "2025-05-19",
  "explanation": "What if you could fly over Pluto's moon Charon […]",
  "media_type": "other",
  "service_version": "v1",
  "title": "Charon Flyover from New Horizons"
}

This media type is not documented (and contains no URL at all). I think it should be documented.

PS: The resource looks like a video on apod.nasa.gov, I don't know why it was categorized as other.
