Stunning images from the launch of the Artemis II mission continue to make the rounds on the internet with the result being more than impressive.

There were several… lucky ones who were able to capture the moment of the spacecraft’s launch, from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, marking the first manned mission to the Moon since that of Apollo 17 in 1972.

The rocket uses NASA’s Space Launch System and the Orion spacecraft.

The launch was captured by front-flight passengers, by civilians who were at the time in their homes in the area, and by the U.S. Coast Guard, which released captivating photos.
