NASA Christina Koch's head and hair is shown in silhouette, while she gazes up at a colorful three-quarters Earth filling one of the cockpit windows. Surreal!
And... this!

A new photo taken by the Artemis II crew, taken from the far side of the Moon, shows the curved edge of the Moon on a black field that shows a crescent Earth setting behind the edge. Incredible!
Like... this!

I'm begging everyone... take a break from political/world news and spend a few minutes to delight in the Artemis II photo gallery. Some real stunning images in there.

We can’t get one full day of residual #Moonjoy with the genocider and queef posting quid pro quo war crimes about committing more war crimes.

Artemis II Orion Astronauts Unseen Camera Footage of Lunar Flyby Finally Out! Details of Moon! https://bit.ly/4mh1XXH #MoonJoy
This reaction and response from the crew when asked how the photos went sparked so much #MoonJoy, like you know that feeling when you hit the money shots as a photographer. And godsdamn did they deliver

Eclipsed: A View from Orion NASA ID: art002e009571 art002e009571 (April 6, 2026) - The Moon, backlit by the Sun during a solar eclipse, is photographed by NASA’s Orion spacecraft on April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II mission. 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. Credit: NASA * Date Created:2026-04-07
A first for human eyes to see an eclipse like this from the far side of the moon. Staggering!! #ArtemisII #MoonJoy
It’s either this or #MoonJoy
I had planned a new Starbright piece today about #MoonJoy and #ArtemisII. But I’m not sure how to write or post about joy and amazement when this doomsday clock is ticking down.
Hearing the pure excitement and joy in both the ISS and Integrity crews' voices as they talk ship-to-ship is making me grin like the happy space geek I am. 😁 #ArtemisII #NASA #MoonJoy
Artemis II photos have been amazing. Can you imagine when we get non-janky '60s/'70s photos and video from the lunar surface??

Close-up photo of the Moon viewed during solar eclipse. Surface detail is illuminated along a crescent due to reflected light from the Earth ("Earthshine"), and the Sun's corona is visible around the periphery of the Moon. The brightest parts of a starfield are visible in the background
illustration of astronauts Christina Koch, Victor Glover, Jeremy Hansen, and Reid Wiseman’s faces in profile as line art. they are lined up next to eachother facing away from the earth and towards the moon. there are lots of colors and swirls and twinkly stars.
Moon Joy to you and me 🌒🛰️🤩 Over the moon for the Artemis II crew 💜

NASA’s Artemis II Astronauts Spread ‘Moon Joy’ to the Public While science can seem colorless and plain, NASA’s lunar crew members have brought expressiveness and emotion about their journey to mission control and the public.. @thecosmicmeta.com #MoonJoy

The images coming back from Artemis are so amazing. And you know we're going to have a steady stream of them for a while! #ArtemisII #NASA #MoonJoy images.nasa.gov
I am being unexpectedly emotional about the lunar flight. #MoonJoy
#moonjoy — a rare cordial distilled of the pale orb’s mirth; and, God wot, we stand in sore need of such physic in these pinched and crabbed times.
Watching Artemis II break records, see and name things never seen before yesterday made me feel a bit of what Paul's feeling here.

Yesterday was so amazing. Watching/listening to the Artemis livestream and thinking cool science thoughts thanks to wonderful posts here. #moonjoy
April 7, 2026 and the Artemis II crew have gone behind the moon and come out the other side for their journey home #spacetok #moonjoy #artemisii #orionintegrity #earthbound
Sure, we might also take a photo to use as a reference later on to evidence our observations (and to capture the beauty of the location), but ultimately having humans present enables new ways of thinking about both familiar and new locations #Moonjoy #planetarygeology 🌒☄️
The past two nights I have driven home from work, watching the Moon rise over the horizon. While I look at the Moon, I am also looking at Artemis II. The past five days have been phenomenal and today was nothing short of magical. I am overwhelmed with emotion.

my reaction was exactly the same as Kelsey's when the crew reported they saw MULTIPLE meteorite strikes during the far side transit

A small, squarish quilted box in pink and green strips of fabric.
Watching the Artemis II flyby this evening, I improvised a 4” quilted box made from some of the scraps from my quilt. Nice low stakes practice and puzzle solving while watching amazing images from the moon and listening to happy scientists. #QuiltSky #MoonJoy
big feelings about #Artemis2 seeing a solar eclipse
I've only been in totality once in my life, but I would describe it as the most religious experience I've ever had.
Cannot imagine how emotional I would be to see what they just saw.
#Artemis #MoonJoy
I cannot deal with how insanely cool it is that the #Artemis2 crew are seeing meteor impact flahes on the surface of the Moon, a thing we presumably *anticipated* them being possibly able to do since this eclipse is a planned mission event.
I believe the kids call this "aura farming"
#Artemis
Amazing news, Hansen and Reid have each seen 2 meteor impacts on the Moon!
Some on visible side, so citizen scientists may have footage too.
