The Artemis II mission has begun with astronauts capturing breathtaking images of Earth from their capsule. Commander Reid Wiseman took a photo showing a curved slice of Earth, while another image displayed the entire globe with clouds and a green aurora. The crew is currently over 110,000 miles from Earth, heading towards the moon. They will perform a flyby and return home without landing.
