(250701) -- BEIJING, July 1, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This image released by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) shows a view of the moon captured by the Tianwen-2 probe on May 30, 2025 and post-processed by scientific researchers. The China National Space Administration (CNSA) on Tuesday released images of Earth and the moon captured by the Tianwen-2 probe in orbit.
The CNSA said that the narrow-field-of-view navigation sensor equipped on the probe recently captured the images of Earth and the moon, demonstrating good functional performance.
The images released include a photograph of Earth obtained by Tianwen-2 when it was approximately 590,000 kilometers away from the planet, as well as a new photograph of the moon captured when it was about the same distance from the moon. After the images were transmitted back to the ground, they were processed and produced by scientific researchers. (CNSA/Handout via Xinhua)
