AMAZING SCIENCE: Earthrise Seen From the Moon’s Surface

  Read Time:21 Second

Days before Japan’s Hakuto-R lunar lander apparently crashed into the moon’s surface on April 25, it snapped a truly gorgeous picture of our planet. The image, which is reminiscent of Apollo 8’s iconic “Earthrise” photo, shows our planet sitting on top of the lunar horizon like a perfect blue marble. The moon’s shadow can be seen passing over Australia, which was experiencing a total solar eclipse at the time.
