Artemis II crew see first glimpse of far side of Moon (bbc.com)

NASA’s Artemis II crew, including Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen, have begun orbiting around the Moon’s far side and described it as a new and unusual view. The astronauts shared a photo of the Orientale basin, which NASA says is the first time the entire basin has been seen by human eyes. The report also notes the Orion spacecraft’s distance from Earth as it continues the mission.
