       Today, the photos from the Artemis II lunar flyby reached us and have been shared widely. Photos like this one, of the majestic blue marble setting behind the gray lifeless moon.It shows a glimpse of beauty and provides perspective, but also speaks of technological prowess.Yet what is more, what I think the real reason is why these pictures resonate so strongly with most of us right now, is the idea of putting 7.35 × 10²² kg of solid rock between oneself and *wide sweeping gesture* all this.
