I would post some of the shockingly bad photos of the Moon that are ALL that Artemis I has sent back, but I can't get the Upload page to load, because of an alleged HTTPS certificate problem (bad date).

Look at the dreadful Moon photos in this article:
www.cbsnews.com...
How did they make them look so bad? How is this possible? They are completely useless images.

You not liking the photos does not mean they aren't genuine. Your idea of 'shockingly bad' obviously diggers from those who thought they were remarkable
They'll be published when they get published, not when people who are just going to whine about them anyway stamp their feet.

It has pretty much only just arrived at the Cape for processing:

I'll repeat a point made in the other thread about Artermis: it didn't go there to take pictures of the moon. It's main purpose was to test out the spacecraft and procedures. Photos were a bonus. The fact that bandwidth was more important for mission telemetry isn't an excuse, it's a fact
While you're waiting for the higher res images, have some pretty picturestaken by Korea's probe that's just entered lunar orbit:

It's a 'proper' lunar orbit, rather than a flyby like Artemis, but still, all that way and no colour camera.
