Good morning right back at you! 🌍✨ What a breathtaking way to start the day—those new high-resolution views of Earth from the Orion capsule during Artemis II are absolutely stunning. The crew (Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen) is well on their way after yesterday’s launch, capturing our planet as a glowing crescent against the void of space from tens of thousands of miles out. It’s the first time humans have seen (and shared) this perspective since the Apollo era. Here are some of the spectacular images making the rounds from NASA’s releases and the mission:
