At the same time Venus, Mars and Mercury will stand close to the sun. The crew will also try to find them with their naked eyes to help manuell navigation for future Artemis astronauts.

The crew will later see an eclipse and a partial eclipse that is only visible from the moon. They will use the chance to observe the sun's corona.

In 1 hour and 40 minutes the crew will lose contact to Earth and in 11 hours and 30 minutes the closest approach to the moon will be reached.

From window 3 the crew can see now the crescent of the Earth and a full visible moon together.

Human beings are capable of committing the worst atrocities. Today, a historic moment presents itself to us. For over 50 years, four human beings have been putting us in our place by making us reflect on the values โโof liberty, equality and fraternity. #ArtemisII #NASA #ESA @esa.int #ASC
The crew has also reported about a structure that appears in a brown colour. This is special as from Earth we can only see the bright grey and white structures.

The bandwidth for the Go-Pro cameras was reduced to ensure security of the crew.

There are Go-Pro cameras on the solar wings. The reason why the live stream quality is not as good as you may would expect is that parallel all other system information has to be send back to Earth in real time as well.

The crew talks often about the so-called "terminator". This is the line where daylight and night are being separated.

Christina Koch speaks about much more new craters than visible on photos. Some craters are very tiny.

In around 1 hour, Orion will enter into the moons gravity sphere. The closest flyby will be in about 13 hours, around 10:40 CEST tomorrow morning.

The closest approach of the Orion spacecraft to the moon will be at a distance of 4070 miles (6.500 km) from the Moon surface. In this time, the spacecraft will be in the moon shadow without connection to Earth

The crew reports that the illumination of the Earth is brighter than the one of the moon, still when they are closer to moon than to Earth and Earth appears smaller on the horizon.

The four Artemis II astronauts just set a record for human distance from Earth, 400.000 km. This also explains why "service" missions to #ESAEuclid, #JWST, or #ESAGaia are unlikely (and currently impossible): their location at the Sun-Earth L2-point is ~1.5 million km away.

In less than 20 minutes, the observation time of the moon for the crew will start.
