On May 8, 2022, NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems’ Program Manager Shawn Quinn captured this crop of a full frame image of the Hadley–Apennine region of Earth’s Moon including the Apollo 15 landing site (very near the edge of the shadow of one of the lunar mountains in the area). Building upon the pioneers from the Apollo Program, Artemis crews will plan to verify capabilities for humans to explore deep space and pave the way for long-term exploration and science on the lunar surface.

2022年5月8日，NASA探索地面系统项目经理肖恩·奎因（Shawn Quinn）拍摄了这张裁剪自全幅影像的照片，画面展示了地球月球的哈德利-亚平宁（Hadley–Apennine）区域，其中包括阿波罗15号的着陆点（位于该区域一座月球山脉阴影边缘附近）。基于阿波罗计划开拓者的成就，阿尔忒弥斯计划的宇航员将验证人类探索深空的能力，并为未来在月球表面的长期探索与科学研究铺平道路。
