@ZachNagel7 I have a number of high res photos I’ve taken from Helicopters over the city with both stadiums before the dome was demolished. Happy to send your way if you’d like any printed. 👊
The most historic #GoPro images ever captured.
Slide 1: The Moon, seen backlit by the Sun during a solar eclipse on April 6, 2026, is photographed by a GoPro on the Orion spacecraft’s solar array wing. Orion is visible in the foreground on the left. Earth is reflecting sunlight at the left edge of the Moon, which is slightly brighter than the rest of the disk. The bright spot visible just below the Moon’s bottom right edge is Saturn. Beyond that, the bright spot at the right edge of the image is Mars.
Slide 2: A GoPro on NASA’s Orion spacecraft captures the Moon and the Earth in one frame during the Artemis II crew’s deep space journey at 6:42 p.m. ET on the sixth day of the mission. The right side of NASA’s Orion spacecraft is seen lit up by the Sun. A waxing crescent Moon is visible behind it. And then, a crescent Earth, tiny compared to the Moon, is about to set below the Moon’s horizon on the right.
Slide 3: The Sun is rising at the left edge of the Moon, ending a nearly one-hour total solar eclipse on April 6, 2026. While the Sun hid behind the Moon, the crew aboard the Orion spacecraft, pictured in the forefront, saw a Moon shrouded in night. This offered a perfect opportunity to look for rarely seen phenomena. And the moment delivered. Calling down to Earth at 9 p.m. ET the crew reported seeing six impact flashes, which are light flashes that are created when meteoroids, traveling many thousands of miles per hour, smash into the Moon’s surface.
Slide 4: The Orion spacecraft is seen in the foreground lit up by the Sun. A first quarter Moon is visible in the background. Orientale basin, a 600-mile-wide impact crater ringed by mountains, is visible toward the bottom right of the Moon. This basin straddles the Moon’s near and far sides. To the left of Orientale, which has a patch of ancient lava in its basin, is the far side; this is the hemisphere we don’t get to see from Earth. To the right of Orientale is the near side, the hemisphere we see every day from Earth. The nearside is notable for giant, dark patches of ancient lave flows that cover its surface.

From build floor to launch pad.
From concept to crewed mission.
I got to witness the Orion spacecraft before it ever left the ground—
and today it’s headed to the Moon on Artemis II. Godspeed. 🚀
Every American owes it to themselves to go see a SpaceX rocket launch.
They’re a reminder that there's more to life than politics and problems.
It would be useful to make this a field trip for public schools.
There is no better demonstration of what makes America special.
@mikemajlak Greatest rapper alive. Also my favorite painting I own. 🐐
My favorite part is the Lil Wayne debate like weezy doesn’t have Jay-Z lyrics tattooed all over his body.
