NASA / ESA - Hubble Space Telescope patch.
Sept. 25, 2020
This image from 1991 shows Earth's Moon, with its dark basaltic mare, clearly visible in great detail.
Our Moon is Earth's only natural satellite, unlike several other planets in our solar system. For example, gas giant Jupiter has more than 70 known moons.
Learn more about the Moon and participate in International Observe the Moon Night.
