This is the best animation of the trajectory I've seen: https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap260406.html

I really liked this video! Orbits are hard to visualize but I think the choices here were very good.

It's interesting that the flights are not timed for when the moon is in the magnetosphere shadow. As far as I could gather it seems they're intentionally exposing astronauts to more radiation to test equipment (maybe with an eye to future Mars missions?). Hard to get hard details from all the press release fluffy
