2025 February 28 - Athena to the Moon

In today's image, we see the Athena craft as it leaves Earth heading to our Moon. It is scheduled to land on the Moon on March 6 and explore the region around the South Pole, which is a potential landing site for the Artemis 3 mission to land humans on the Moon.
