TL;DR Summary

NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) captured an image of the April 8 solar eclipse from 223,000 miles away using its Narrow Angle Cameras, which require the spacecraft to rapidly rotate to build up the image. Launched in 2009, LRO has provided valuable data about the Moon and is managed by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. NASA aims to return to the Moon with commercial and international partners to expand human presence in space.
