In a significant advancement for space exploration and photography, NASA, in collaboration with Nikon, has successfully deployed a mirrorless camera on the moon. This groundbreaking initiative, aimed at capturing high-quality images directly from the lunar surface, will be utilized by NASA astronauts. The camera has been mounted on the U.S. spacecraft, Odysseus, which recently sent back a captivating 'money shot' from the moon's south pole. Among the images shared is a historic farewell picture titled 'Goodnight, Odie,' showcasing a crescent Earth as seen from the moon. This image, along with others like NASA's Astronomy Image of the Day featuring Odysseus and The Dish, marks a monumental moment in space exploration and photography.
