Earthset

The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon. The Apollo 8 mission was the first crewed spacecraft to circumnavigate the Moon.

For more imagery from the mission, visit our Artemis II Multimedia Page.

It's official! The Artemis II crew of Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen (speaking) and NASA astronauts Christina Koch, Victor Glover, and Reid Wiseman have broken the Apollo 13 distance record and flown further from the Earth than any human in history.

When you get mad, take a deep breath and count to ten. Throw a punch at eight. No one ever expects that.

One last look at Earth before we reach the Moon. This view of the Earth was captured on April 5, the fifth day of the Artemis II mission, from inside the Orion spacecraft. The four astronauts will reach their closest approach of the Moon tomorrow, April 6.

That's us, together.

While we're looking up at the Artemis II astronauts journeying to the Moon, they're looking back home at us. 

In this image, Earth peeks through the capsule window, reminding us that a view like this relies on the ingenuity and hard work of countless people back home.

In the second image, we see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere.
