FINALLY! Lots of fantastic images from the Artemis 2 astronauts!
Some impressive photos from the Artemis 2 fly-by
In this day of social media and instant gratification, it's tough to wait for high quality images.
But the Artemis 2 astronauts have delivered!

TY for sharing! I'd been looking for the images!

Two things I noticed about pictures that the narrator didn’t mention:
- In some of the pictures, one can clearly make out distant galaxies in the deep space background!
- Several images of the moon’s surface show lines of smaller craters. My imagination says they are skid marks where moderate sized objects collided with the surface at a low angle, resulting in the object bouncing along and creating lines of craters. But I presume there are other possible explanations.
