About this work
art002e024311 (April 6, 2026) - The Artemis II crew was tasked with capturing many key features visible in this image of the Moon, captured on flight day 6. The terminator, or the difference in light and darkness, is visible on the top left. The large dark gray area toward center-left is Orientale Basin, while the characteristic dark patches of ancient lava flow we see on the near side are visible on the right half of this image.
