South Korean Moon Probe Captures Image of NASA's Lunar Orbiter.

TL;DR Summary
South Korea's Danuri lunar orbiter, equipped with NASA-funded ShadowCam, captured a sunlit image of NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) from a distance of just 11.2 miles (18 kilometers) as the probes zipped by each other in their respective orbits. The high-speed encounter required coordination and timing, and the resulting image shows LRO's solar array, radiator, and high-gain antenna. ShadowCam is being used to learn about shadowed areas at the lunar south pole ahead of NASA's Artemis 3 mission, mapping out permanently shadowed areas.
