I searched for graphics ("images") depicting solar wind and that’s totally it. Thank you!

I’m guessing it’s radiation. It’s bouncing off of the planets atmosphere.

Magnetosphere mostly. Only the part that’s funneled along the field lines towards the poles makes it to the atmosphere, where it might be visible as aurora.

This has way too many special effects for my tastes. People are going to the Moon, it doesn’t need hyping up.

As a lay person, it’s incredible to me that we’re able to yeet 4 people at the moon in a fuckin’ box with such precision that we can catch them again a little over a week later.
