Se rompe el récord de la distancia más lejana de un ser humano de la tierra con 400,286km y sumando, los astronautas de Artemis II bautizan un cráter como "Integrity" por la nave Orion y otro cráter como "Carroll" en honor a la difunta esposa del comandante @astro_reid 🫂🧑🏻🚀

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).

Left: photo I took of the moon with a 1200mm lens two nights ago
Right: photo captured by the Artemis II crew with a 400mm lens through the windows of Orion *this morning*
The crew's view of the Orientale basin is remarkable - we can't see most of it here on Earth!
But it's also kind of alarming(?!) to see the moon FILLING THE FRAME at only 400mm... guess that tends to happen when you're only 32,000 miles away compared to us being around 238,000 miles away on average 🤣
Absolutely FROTHING for what they're able to capture during their closest approach this evening!!!

It’s lunar flyby day on NASA’s Artemis II Mission around the Moon 🌚
History is happening above us today! As the astronauts on Orion reach their closest approach to the Moon, we’re celebrating this milestone here on Earth.
What you see on the Exosphere was created in collaboration with @NASA, who provided us with a 3D model of the spacecraft and unique soundbites from the April 1st launch to help us design the moon, spacecraft, and flight path to match the real-life version.

Witness the Terran Armada at the height of their power as they invade the Settled Systems in the fifth episode of the #Starfield Animated Anthology. In “Ab Astris Ad Terram,” the leaders of the Terran Armada test the limits on how far they are willing to go in their unification effort, including the kidnapping of a brilliant roboticist.
The Terran Armada DLC is available on April 7 alongside the Free Lanes update!

"Welcome to my old neighborhood." Our @NASAArtemis II astronauts woke up on the sixth day of their mission to a special message recorded in 2025 by astronaut Jim Lovell, the pilot of Apollo 8.
