EXCLUSIVE IMAGE RELEASE

Thank you to NASA and the Orion team for the privilege of releasing this never before seen photo from the Orion Spacecraft.

This exclusive image from Orion might look like a mess, but it shows us where we are and where we are going as a species in space exploration.

Its blurriness and strangeness shows us truly how vast space is and how little we know about what is beyond our thin blanket of atmosphere on Earth. This is what makes this photo so special; its inspires us to explore beyond our atmosphere. 50 years ago we went to the Moon for the first time, landing on the moon was a challenge, but the biggest challenge was just working together; and now we are going back but this time to stay, and then we are going to Mars.

"Space was brought upon us, and we saw many mysteries lying within its darkness, seeing the stars sprinkled throughout it, and seeing images and beings that were far beyond us. And when we were ready, we made our first baby step, landing on the moon. We are in the process of making our mark for future generations and other beings to look upon"

- DT, Orion Team

Artemis 1 is just the beginning of a new era of space exploration, for all of history going forward we will not look to the Moon and say we went there once, we will look to the moon and say look we are there too.
