During the second step of humankind’s first-ever lunar-Earth flyby, ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) captured this stunning view of Earth. The image covers the northern Pacific Ocean, with North America starting to appear on the right (east) side of the Earth image.

The image was taken by Juice monitoring camera 1 (JMC1) just at 00:09 CEST on 21 August 2024, as Juice was heading towards its closest approach to Earth. This successful flyby of Earth redirected Juice’s path through space to put it on course for a flyby of Venus in August 2025.
