Artemis II commander shares a remarkable video of Earth vanishing behind the Moon

Artemis II commander Reid Wiseman posted an unedited iPhone video showing Earth disappearing behind the Moon during the crew’s flyby.

Christina Koch also captured still images of the same moment, marking the first human-witnessed Earthset in 54 years.

The view is the first of its kind since Apollo 17 and highlights the historic nature of the Artemis II mission.

The footage underscores the rare perspective of Earth from deep space and the mission’s long-duration lunar exploration test.
