"The album now holds 12,217 images by cosmic travelers Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen during their more than 250,000-mile, 10-day flyby mission around the moon."
"Some of the most impactful photos include the reflections of the astronauts' hands and faces in the window of their vehicle, the Orion module."
"Juxtaposed with meticulously engineered equipment, the earth and moon seem somehow less abstracted from this unique vantage point, in which these orbs appear somehow more resonant and precious-and vulnerable."
NASA has significantly expanded its Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth archive by adding over 12,000 images from the Artemis II mission. The mission involved astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen on a 10-day flyby around the moon, capturing 12,217 images. The astronauts used Nikons and an iPhone 17 for photography. Many images are similar or blurry, yet they convey the astronauts' awe as they document Earth and the moon from a unique perspective.
