"Commander Reid Wiseman snapped a photo of the Earth nearly eclipsing the Sun, and what's known as zodiacal light nearby which, during an eclipse, takes a triangular shape when sunlight bounces off of dust particles."
"Another photo, also by Wiseman, shows Earth's terminator line, which separates day from night."
"The crew is working with NASA's science team to determine what other photos may be of interest once they start to orbit the moon."
NASA's Artemis II mission has successfully launched a four-person crew to the moon, marking the first such mission in over 50 years. The crew has shared impressive images, including a photo of Earth nearly eclipsing the Sun, showcasing zodiacal light and auroras. Commander Reid Wiseman captured these stunning visuals, including Earth's terminator line. The crew is collaborating with NASA's science team to identify additional interesting photos as they prepare to orbit the moon.
