Also of note. 50 years ago the trips to the moon were ‘timed’ to arrive at moon either at the First Quarter or Last Quarter.
This is so communications both ways are void of solar noise interferences.
This Artemis 1 trip is ‘timed’ just as the sun goes behind the moon as in ‘New Moon’ time. Earth people will ‘see’ very noisy if not unusable data from the moon locale. This could last for days.
Just more stupid from nasa. I guess the wokeness outweights science again.

Deep space missions (like the Mars flyby in the mid-60s) used then-expensive RAM to store images, due to the slow transmission speed for the images. Likely something like that technique will be used.
