Artemis I: Flight Day 13
On flight day 13 of the Artemis 1 mission, the Orion spacecraft reached its furthest point from Earth, over 430,000 kilometers away. From this distant retrograde orbit, Orion was also nearly 70,000 kilometers from the Moon. In this video frame, Earth and the Moon appear to be about the same size from the spacecraft's perspective.
