[서울신문 나우뉴스]What would the Earth and the Moon look like if seen from deep space, about 400,000 km away, the distance between the Earth and the Moon? In early January 1998, a photo showing the Earth-Moon system from NASA’s Near Shoemaker spacecraft. was filmed. Near is an abbreviation for ‘Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous’, and Shoemaker was named in memory of astrophysicist Eugene M. Shoemaker. This photo was taken in deep space, about 400,000 km away from Earth. The photo reproduces the relative size of the Earth and the Moon at 4 to 1. However, for the sake of resolution, the apparent brightness of the moon was increased by about five times. The moon seen from deep space at a distance of 400,000 km has a dark brown color, while the Earth shines in various colors against the dark space background. The blue ocean, swirling clouds, and bright, icy white Antarctica give it a powerful feel. As Earth’s only satellite, it has no atmosphere or ocean, giving it a relatively flat feel, but it is one of the largest moons in the solar system. It is even larger than the dwarf planet Pluto. Designed to orbit and explore the near-Earth asteroid 433 Eros, the unmanned spacecraft Near Shoemaker used Earth’s gravity to change direction toward its final destination, asteroid 433 Eros. February 17, 1996 The launched Near Shoemaker spacecraft passed the asteroid 253 Matilda at a distance of 1,200 km on June 27, 1997, after leaving Earth’s orbit. Afterwards, the spacecraft arrived at 433 Eros in January 1999, circled around it and collected information, and landed at the asteroid’s saddle point (a point that is not the pole in a two-dimensional plane) on February 12, 2001. The entire mission ended on February 28.
