NASA's Artemis II crew are quite the photographers. See what they've snapped so far

It has only been a couple of days since NASA successfully launched astronauts to the moon for the first time in over half a century. The Artemis II mission's four-person crew has already sent back amazing photos from their journey. These include behind-the-scenes shots from inside their cabin and stunning views of Earth.

Views from Space

Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman took a photo of Earth almost blocking the Sun. Nearby, you can see zodiacal light, which looks like a triangle when sunlight reflects off dust particles during an eclipse. In the same picture, Earth has northern and southern auroras at its top right and bottom left.

Another photo by Wiseman shows Earth's terminator line, which is the boundary between day and night.

Lakiesha Hawkins, acting deputy associate administrator for NASA's Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate, said the crew is working with NASA's science team. They are deciding what other photos might be interesting once they start orbiting the moon.
