Japan's ispace Resilience Moon Lander - Feb. 15, 2025

The Resilience lunar lander successfully completed a flyby of the Moon on Feb. 15, 2025, coming within approximately 8,400 km of the lunar surface—a historic first of its type for a Japanese private, commercial lunar lander. This spectacular image of our celestial neighbor was taken by Resilience on Feb. 15, 2025 at an altitude of 14,439 km.
