(TNND) — If you haven’t had enough of the photos from the historic Artemis II moon mission, you are in luck!

NASA published more than 12,000 new photos that astronauts took after lifting off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 1, breaking the record for the farthest distance humans have traveled from Earth.

Astronauts Christina Koch, Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Jeremy Hansen ventured to the far side of the Moon, traveling more than 25,000 miles beyond the previous record set by Apollo 13 in 1970.

Previous photos released by NASA only scraped the surface of what was to come and showed a rare view of the moon’s far side during a solar eclipse.
