In this first photo, Danuri appears as a dark spot centered in the bottom third.
The lunar orbiter is a bit smudged, so you really need to squint to find it.
For perspective, this image covers an area thats about 2 miles (3 kilometers) wide.
NASA’s LRO captured this image of the Danuri lunar orbiter at a distance of about 2.5 miles.Image: NASA/Goddard/Arizona State University
Due to the fast travel velocities, Danuri appears squished in the photos.
The Danuri orbiter can be seen here in the highlighted white box.
This isnt the first time the pair of lunar orbiters have had a celestial photoshoot.
