NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) captured images of South Korea's lunar orbiter, Danuri, resembling a surfboard near the moon. The unique encounter between the two spacecraft occurred as they orbited in parallel paths, with Danuri looking elongated due to speed differences. Danuri, the first Korean spacecraft in lunar orbit, appeared 'smeared to 10 times its size' due to camera specifications.
