	Description:		Artemis II astronauts on a lunar flyby mission have broken Apollo 13's distance record as humans travel further from earth than ever before. The crew are witnessing the moon from roughly 4,000 miles above its darkened surface as it eclipses what will appear to be a basketball-sized Earth in the distant background. They're now cruising along a path in the moon's gravitational sphere of influence that will take them over the shadowed lunar far side.
