Make new friends, but keep the old.
A new photo captures the Moon's near side on the right (the side we see from Earth, identifiable by its dark splotches) and its far side on the left. The Artemis II crew are the first to see the far side with human eyes.
Earthset.
The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.

The names of my husband, my dog Kuro, and me are on their way to the Moon.
We have been apart for a long time, but for a little while, we will be together again.
Thank you, Artemis II.
Fist bump, Rise!
Very emotional moment zipping up Rise, knowing we are bringing 5,647,889 names with us on this journey around the Moon. For all!
People from around the world submitted their names through the Send Your Name with Artemis campaign.
These names were downloaded onto an SD card that is safely stored inside "Rise," the zero gravity indicator designed by 2nd grader Lucas Ye from California. Thanks for coming along, everyone!
“Your husband will always be a part of you, and I honestly believe when we enter the next life or whatever plane of existence is beyond our time on this earth, that you both will be reunited and it will be everything you wanted.”
