Take a virtual tour of the Moon in all-new 4K resolution, thanks to data provided by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft. As the visualization moves around the near side, far side, north and south poles, we highlight interesting features, sites, and information gathered on the lunar terrain.

his video uses data gathered from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft to recreate some of the stunning views of the Moon that the Apollo 13 astronauts saw on their perilous journey around the farside in 1970. These visualizations, in 4K resolution, depict many different views of the lunar surface, starting with earth set and sunrise and concluding with the time Apollo 13 reestablished radio contact with Mission Control. Also depicted is the path of the free return trajectory around the Moon, and a continuous view of the Moon throughout that path. All views have been sped up for timing purposes — they are not shown in "real-time.

This visualization uses a digital 3D model of the Moon built from global elevation maps and image mosaics by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter mission. It was created to accompany a performance of Claude Debussy's Clair de Lune by the National Symphony Orchestra Pops, led by conductor Emil de Cou, at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, on June 1 and 2, 2018, as part of a celebration of NASA's 60th anniversary.

Everything that happens on the International Space Station revolves around one thing: Earth, sixteen times a day! So for Earth Day 2021, NASA offers a gift you can’t get anywhere else with this leisurely view of our home planet, from 250 miles up, rendered in extraordinary ultra-high definition video. Hit play, relax and enjoy. This 4K footage was recorded between 2019 and 2020.

This 4K visualization shows the Moon's phase and libration at hourly intervals throughout 2022, as viewed from the Northern Hemisphere. Each frame represents one hour. In addition, this visualization shows the Moon's orbit position, sub-Earth and subsolar points, and distance from the Earth at a true scale. #NASA #MoonMission #SpaceExploration #LunarExploration #MoonLandin #SpaceScience #Astrobiology #CelestialBodies #LunarResearch #OuterSpace #Astronomy #SpaceVideos #SpaceTechnology #MoonRover #SpaceDiscoveries #CosmicWonders #LunarLandscapes #MoonSurface #SpaceTravel #Extraterrestrial #SpaceResearch #MoonFacts #Astrophysics #SpaceMissions #MoonWalk #LunarHistory #MoonCrater #Interstellar #MoonPhases #StarrySkies

video chronicles solar activity from Aug. 12 to Dec. 22, 2022, as captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). From its orbit in space around Earth, SDO has steadily imaged the Sun in 4K x 4K resolution for nearly 13 years. This information has enabled countless new discoveries about the workings of our closest star and how it influences the solar system. With a triad of instruments, SDO captures an image of the Sun every 0.75 seconds. The Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) instrument alone captures images every 12 seconds at 10 different wavelengths of light. #NASA #MoonMission #SpaceExploration #LunarExploration #MoonLandin #SpaceScience #Astrobiology #CelestialBodies #LunarResearch #OuterSpace #Astronomy #SpaceVideos #SpaceTechnology #MoonRover #SpaceDiscoveries #CosmicWonders #LunarLandscapes #MoonSurface #SpaceTravel #Extraterrestrial #SpaceResearch #MoonFacts #Astrophysics #SpaceMissions #MoonWalk #LunarHistory #MoonCrater #Interstellar #MoonPhases #StarrySkies

The people who get to see the Earth from space marvel at its beauty, the colors, the fragility they feel about the planet 250 miles below them. Now it’s your turn: this ultra-high definition video, captured during the International Space Station’s Expedition 65, allows you an extended, appreciative gawk at the home planet in all its glory. Hit play, and go into orbit mode. This footage was shot from the International Space Station between April 17, 2021 – Oct. 17, 2021 #NASA #MoonMission #SpaceExploration #LunarExploration #MoonLandin #SpaceScience #Astrobiology #CelestialBodies #LunarResearch #OuterSpace #Astronomy #SpaceVideos #SpaceTechnology #MoonRover #SpaceDiscoveries #CosmicWonders #LunarLandscapes #MoonSurface #SpaceTravel #Extraterrestrial #SpaceResearch #MoonFacts #Astrophysics #SpaceMissions #MoonWalk #LunarHistory #MoonCrater #Interstellar #MoonPhases #StarrySkies
