The most historic #GoPro images ever captured.
Slide 1: The Moon, seen backlit by the Sun during a solar eclipse on April 6, 2026, is photographed by a GoPro on the Orion spacecraft’s solar array wing. Orion is visible in the foreground on the left. Earth is reflecting sunlight at the left edge of the Moon, which is slightly brighter than the rest of the disk. The bright spot visible just below the Moon’s bottom right edge is Saturn. Beyond that, the bright spot at the right edge of the image is Mars.
Slide 2: A GoPro on NASA’s Orion spacecraft captures the Moon and the Earth in one frame during the Artemis II crew’s deep space journey at 6:42 p.m. ET on the sixth day of the mission. The right side of NASA’s Orion spacecraft is seen lit up by the Sun. A waxing crescent Moon is visible behind it. And then, a crescent Earth, tiny compared to the Moon, is about to set below the Moon’s horizon on the right.
Slide 3: The Sun is rising at the left edge of the Moon, ending a nearly one-hour total solar eclipse on April 6, 2026. While the Sun hid behind the Moon, the crew aboard the Orion spacecraft, pictured in the forefront, saw a Moon shrouded in night. This offered a perfect opportunity to look for rarely seen phenomena. And the moment delivered. Calling down to Earth at 9 p.m. ET the crew reported seeing six impact flashes, which are light flashes that are created when meteoroids, traveling many thousands of miles per hour, smash into the Moon’s surface.
Slide 4: The Orion spacecraft is seen in the foreground lit up by the Sun. A first quarter Moon is visible in the background. Orientale basin, a 600-mile-wide impact crater ringed by mountains, is visible toward the bottom right of the Moon. This basin straddles the Moon’s near and far sides. To the left of Orientale, which has a patch of ancient lava in its basin, is the far side; this is the hemisphere we don’t get to see from Earth. To the right of Orientale is the near side, the hemisphere we see every day from Earth. The nearside is notable for giant, dark patches of ancient lave flows that cover its surface.

Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: nasa.gov/artemis-ii-mul…

Approaching the near side of the Moon.
The Artemis II astronauts have surpassed the record for the distance from Earth at 1:56 ET (1756 UTC). This record was previously set during the Apollo 13 mission when the astronauts traveled 248,655 miles from Earth. The Moon continues to grow larger and larger in the windows of the Orion spacecraft as the Artemis II mission gears up to observe the far side. The astronauts are predicted to make their closest approach of the Moon around 7:02pm ET (2302 UTC).

Record broken and history made.
@NASA's Artemis II crew has officially surpassed the distance record set by Apollo 13, traveling farther from Earth than any humans before them.
A new generation is redefining what’s possible, one milestone at a time.

History in the making
In this new image from our @NASAArtemis II crew, you can see Orientale basin on the right edge of the lunar disk. This mission marks the first time the entire basin has been seen with human eyes.

Twin solid rocket boosters and four RS-25 engines propel SLS and Orion off the pad this evening on the Artemis II mission.

Video of an insane substorm last night high in the southern sky seen from Paxson, Alaska. This was filmed by Levi on his tour--a bit shaky, but these substorms can ramp up from 0-100 in a matter of seconds!
Levi is working with me to run tours in Fairbanks, Alaska this aurora season. You can book with him on my website: go.theauroraguy.com/levi
Currently, Levi has availability for:
3/15: 1 person
3/17: 1 person
3/23, 3/24: 1 person
3/26, 3/27: 1 person
