Artemis II “Hello World”
The article pinpoints the celestial backdrop behind Earth in NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman’s Artemis II “Hello World” photograph. By cross‑referencing NASA’s Eyes on the Solar System and the Stellarium web app, the author identifies Venus and the constellations Aquarius, Sculptor, Cetus, Pisces and Pegasus. The image also captures two auroras and faint zodiacal light as the Orion crew module orbits. Minor adjustments were made for map distortion, so positional accuracy may vary slightly.
