During their historic journey around the Moon, Artemis II observed lunar targets to study color, texture, topography, and more.
Leading up to the mission and during the flyby, a team of lunar scientists—including some from our Silicon Valley center—trained and guided the crew to use their eyes to observe, describe, and interpret what they were seeing.
Now, scientists are pairing the observations with images the crew took—like these—to create a unique dataset that will inform future missions to the Moon.
