NASA Releases Artemis II Lunar Science Data, Images
NASA’s Artemis II crew traveled around the Moon and back and, along the way, captured stunning imagery and scientific observations of our nearest neighbor. NASA is making the full lunar science dataset from their journey available Wednesday to the global science community and the public for further study.
More than 800 gigabytes of Artemis II lunar science data – some previously unreleased – have been uploaded to NASA’s Planetary Data System, the public archive for NASA’s planetary missions. This data release includes more than 11,000 full-resolution images and video of the Moon from the crew’s handheld cameras and the Orion spacecraft’s cameras, 8.5 hours of audio recordings of the crew’s scientific observations of the lunar surface, and crew-annotated images.

NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman (in blue) and Victor "Ike" Glover (in green) and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen (in red) observed impact flashes and their locations, which are noted on the image. Overall, the astronauts reported seeing five extremely faint "pinprick" bursts of light from their view aboard Orion, which was 46,000 miles (74,000 kilometers) away from the moon at the time. These flashes are sparked by rocky fragments hitting the moon.
