Athena continues to be in excellent health in lunar orbit. Overnight, flight controllers calibrated Athena's landing navigation cameras, which are designed to autonomously track her position and detect hazards during landing. The image sequence from 0 seconds to 20 seconds in this video is from a public affairs camera and is made up of 240 images taken over a mid-latitude region over a 10-minute span. Each picture is shown as one camera frame. For reference, Athena captured the image sequence starting at 20 seconds over the Moon's south pole region near her intended landing site, Mons Mouton — one of NASA's designated human landing sites for the Artemis campaign.
