Earthrise: A Conversation with Apollo 8 Astronaut Bill Anders (Official NASA Video)

Last week, we asked who took the Earthrise photo that inspired the design of the Artemis II zero‑gravity indicator, “Rise.” The answer: William A. Anders. Anders was one of the first three astronauts to travel to the vicinity of the Moon during the Apollo 8 mission. Here, Anders recalls the moment he captured the famous image of Earth rising above the lunar horizon on December 24, 1968.
