NASA Artemis Posters

These appear to be the highlights. There's also other galleries in https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/ with a bunch more photos: https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/artemis-ii-launch/ https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/journey-to-the-moon/ https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/artemis-ii-flight-day-highlight... https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/lunar-flyby/ https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/return-to-earth/ https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/artemis-ii-splashdown-and-recov...

If you're into this, check out the Apollo 11 gallery[1]. Contains very high-quality images from the actual trip, including "not so common" pictures from the moon. [1]: https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/apollo-11/

They all seem to be a disappointingly low resolution, unfortunately.

On the day of the splashdown, I visited the official NASA Space Shop, and I was met with an announcement that the availability of Artemis gear is severely limited "due to unprecedented demand" and there is still a "delayed shipping" notice up there.

I'm still trying to understand how I feel about this so this is a bit of a napkin ramble; I can't help but feel like they've missed the mark a bit on some of the imagery from the mission that's been published so far. One of the most compelling shots from the mission, to me, was Reid Wiseman's IPhone footage from within the capsule while Earth was being eclipsed[0]. At the start there's a moment you can see the window frame and the Moon all together. Seeing the moon in context of their vantage point within the the context of the capsule gave me the awe I had as a kid again, more than almost any shot that's come out this mission. I actually felt like I was in the capsule looking at a massive, sterile cold sphere. I understand wanting to take a nice and centered DLSR picture of... _The Moon_ when you're floating by it, but frankly I've seen thousands of those. They're doing a flyby in a capsule in space, I want to have a taste of how the moon exists from _that_ context. What is it like being ~4,000 from the Moon's surface? Take a crappy 0.5x video from your phone showing the inside, then stick it front of the window. Let the Moon be contextualized from your vantage point. I wont be able to make out every crater and basin and the colors might be off from your eye's view, but I will be able to understand what they are seeing. Everyone has an intuitive understanding and feeling of an IPhone's optics and image pipeline, in some ways seeing the Moon through that is more real and relatable than any mirrorless DLSR + color correction. This being said I don't want to take away from the accomplishment, I'm terribly excited about space exploration and it getting more light in the zeitgeist.

one has wrong info for mission duration. "25.5 day mission" ? it was the 3 main chutes deployed photo. At 12:40 p.m. EST, Dec. 11, 2022, NASA’s Orion spacecraft for the Artemis I mission splashed down in the Pacific Ocean after a 25.5 day mission to the Moon. Orion will be recovered by NASA’s Landing and Recovery team, U.S. Navy and Department of Defense partners aboard the USS Portland.

Little known fact... this images are actually backed by Flickr.com and in there you get to download the original size vs "large" which seems to only be available on the nasa.gov site Just search in flickr for the image id and you will get the relevant image in Flickr. e.g. https://flickr.com/photos/nasa2explore/55208327975

In an effort to recover the $10B they pissed away on this pointless exercise to allow people to take iPhone photos out of a spaceship window, they should charge $10M apiece for the posters...
