ALT A fish-eye view of the Moon's Schomberger crater 125 miles (200 km) at about 6 miles (10 km) above the lunar surface. Taken by a color camera aboard Intuitive Machines' Odysseus lander, the Moon's grayish, rocky surface appears curved against the blackness of space. At bottom right, a portion of the lander can be seen. Credit: Intuitive Machines

ALT A black star-filled background with a bright star near the top center. The star appears diamond-shaped with four diffraction spikes shining from the four sharp ends. At the bottom of the image are four image boxes that show the bright star’s imaged planet in four different Webb telescope filters. The left box shows a NIRCam image using its F200M filter. The planet appears as a purple fuzzy dot with two fuzzy clouds on either end. A star symbol above it is used to convey where the star is being blocked by the telescope’s coronagraph. The next image is similar to the first, but in blue, and also taken by NIRCam using filter F444W. The third image box shows a larger bright orange fuzzy dot. The star symbol is above the orange dot and slightly to the right. This was taken by the telescope’s MIRI instrument using the F1140C filter. The fourth image box is bright red with a fuzzier dot. The star is also to the top right. This was taken by MIRI using the F1550C filter.
