The Artemis II crew – Mission Specialist Christina Koch (top left), Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen (bottom left), Commander Reid Wiseman (bottom right), and Pilot Victor Glover (top right) – uses eclipse viewers, identical to what NASA produced for the 2023 annular eclipse and 2024 total solar eclipse, to protect their eyes at key moments during the solar eclipse they experienced during their lunar flyby.
This was the first use of eclipse glasses at the Moon to safely view a solar eclipse.

Why are they not using sunscreen?
Damn they’re so cool
Hope the in-flight 3D movie is a banger!
Idk why I thought they’d have some more advanced looking ones that look like ski goggles. But nope, just the regular old paper ones we all used lol.
Holy guacamole, it’s SG-1!
What an incredible bond these four will have formed for the rest of their lives
I loved that they were using those glasses and not something higher tech. Sometimes low tech is the best tech.
I wondered about this lol
Tell it to Trump
Seems a vinyl cover from the 80s
