Artemis 1mission POT serves as a fundamental basis for the return of man to Moon, continues to take some of the most unusual pictures of our planet and its satellite. However, the most recent ones were captured by 16 cameras installed in the capsule. Orion is the best of all because it manages to record like Land like the Moon in an imposing photograph that will go down in history.

The image was taken when the spacecraft was sent into lunar orbit by rocket. Space launch system (SLS)reached the maximum distance from Land: about 434,522 kilometers. The capsule was the first designed for a human crew (although in this attempt it only carried dummies) to reach that distance from our planet, surpassing the mission. apollo 13 since 1970.

Orion surpassed Apollo 13’s record

This historical photograph captured Land Nonetheless Moon perfectly aligned from a completely different perspective than the one usually shown POT. The photo also includes the frontal area Orion while in the distance, the Earth’s satellite is visible in brown and slightly larger than our planet due to the camera angle.

Because of this, the diameters Moon (3500 km.) and Land (13,000 km.) In the photo they do not correspond to reality. Below you can see the photo shared by POT through the official website and social media accounts.

NASA’s Orion spacecraft captures stunning images

As we emphasized earlier, these are not the only images that the spacecraft Orion was captured during its journey into orbit Moon. Over the past few weeks after a successful takeoff POT He never ceases to share photos taken by cameras installed in the capsule, of all kinds and from different angles.

For example, the ship managed to take “selfies” in which it poses alone with the ship. Moon or with Land. Of course, these photos serve as a preamble to what astronauts returning to the Earth satellite in 2024 will be able to see and record with their cameras. All this if the trip is successful.
