About this work
art001e001464 (Nov. 27, 2022) On flight day 12, Orion’s optical navigation camera was used to capture this lunar image as the spacecraft was in distant retrograde orbit around the Moon. Orion uses the optical navigation camera to capture imagery of the Earth and the Moon at different phases and distances, providing an enhanced body of data to certify its effectiveness under different lighting conditions as a way to help orient the spacecraft on future missions with crew.
