NASA has released a series of images capturing a Korean spacecraft flying over the surface of the moon at high speeds. The images were taken by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and show the Korea Aerospace Research Institute's Danuri lunar orbiter in a parallel orbit.
NASA has released a series of images capturing what it says was a Korean spacecraft flying over the surface of the moon at thousands of kilometers per hour.Interest in cosmological flight has piqued the interest of American politicians and the public over the past year, with new committees and groups trying to reveal what the U.S. knows about flying objects that have been caught on camera.
The LRO was launched in 2009 by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to investigate the surface of Earth's nearest neighbor and answer fundamental questions about its origin and evolution, along with our planet's own.These photos were captured by the LRO operations team at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Its narrow-angle camera, known as LROC, caught the moment during three orbits where it was close enough to record the Danuri orbiter.
