NASA just released more than 800 gigabytes of the Moon — free, for everyone

NASA has uploaded the full lunar-science dataset from the April 2026 Artemis II crewed flyby to its public Planetary Data System: more than 11,000 full-resolution images and videos, about 8.5 hours of astronaut audio observations and hand-annotated pictures — the first human-captured planetary science dataset in over 50 years, from crew members Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen. Among the finds: five extremely faint lunar impact flashes spotted by the crew, the faintest ever seen by the naked eye.
