Here's an image from the lander.

Also, the return capsule, at the top of the lander, blasted off today to meet up with the orbiter.  If that goes well, then both will head back home.

It's so weird, and cool, seeing the moon's surface in crisp high definition compared to the grainy 1960s/70s footage from the Apollo missions we're used to seeing it in.
