How to make images responsive on smaller screen sizes?

I am a beginner learning from tutorials and I am using the NASA APOD API to make an image gallery.

However, for some reason the images are not responsive when viewing on smaller screen sizes. The images goes off screen and I want it to be like a grid 3 column gallery.

Is using flex box the answer? or Perhaps using media queries is easier?

Apologies for the newbie question.

const resultsNav = document.getElementById("resultsNav");
const favoritesNav = document.getElementById("favoritesNav");
const imagesContainer = document.querySelector(".images-container");
const saveConfirmed = document.querySelector(".save-confirmed");
const loader = document.querySelector(".loader");

// NASA API
const count = 18;
const apiKey = 'DEMO_KEY';
const apiUrl = `https://api.nasa.gov/planetary/apod?api_key=${apiKey}&count=${count}`;

let resultsArray = [];
let favorites = {};

// Show Content
function showContent(page) {
  window.scrollTo({ top: 0, behavior: "instant" });
  if (page === "results") {
    resultsNav.classList.remove("hidden");
    favoritesNav.classList.add("hidden");
  } else {
    resultsNav.classList.add("hidden");
    favoritesNav.classList.remove("hidden");
  }
  loader.classList.add("hidden");
}

// Create DOM Nodes
function createDOMNodes(page) {
  const currentArray =
    page === "results" ? resultsArray : Object.values(favorites);
  currentArray.forEach((result) => {
    // Card Container
    const card = document.createElement("div");
    card.classList.add("card");

    // Link that wraps the image
    const link = document.createElement("a");
    link.href = result.hdurl;
    link.title = "View Full Image";
    link.target = "_blank";

    // Image
    const image = document.createElement("img");
    image.src = result.url;
    image.alt = "NASA Picture of the Day";
    image.loading = "lazy";
    image.classList.add("card-img-top");

    // Card Body
    const cardBody = document.createElement("div");
    cardBody.classList.add("card-body");

    // Card Title
    const cardTitle = document.createElement("h5");
    cardTitle.classList.add("card-title");
    cardTitle.textContent = result.title;

    // Save Text
    const saveText = document.createElement("p");
    saveText.classList.add("clickable");
    if (page === "results") {
      saveText.textContent = "Add To Favorites";
      saveText.setAttribute("onclick", `saveFavorite('${result.url}')`);
    } else {
      saveText.textContent = "Remove Favorite";
      saveText.setAttribute("onclick", `removeFavorite('${result.url}')`);
    }

    // Card Text
    const cardText = document.createElement("p");
    cardText.textContent = result.explanation;

    // Footer Conatiner
    const footer = document.createElement("small");
    footer.classList.add("text-muted");

    // Date
    const date = document.createElement("strong");
    date.textContent = result.date;

    // Copyright
    const copyrightResult =
      result.copyright === undefined ? "" : result.copyright;
    const copyright = document.createElement("span");
    copyright.textContent = ` ${copyrightResult}`;

    // Append everything together
    footer.append(date, copyright);
    // cardBody.append(cardTitle, saveText, cardText, footer); //hide to make image display
    link.appendChild(image);
    card.append(link);

    // Append to image container
    imagesContainer.appendChild(card);
  });
}

// Update the DOM
function updateDOM(page) {
  // Get favorites from local storage
  if (localStorage.getItem("nasaFavorites")) {
    favorites = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("nasaFavorites"));
  }
  imagesContainer.textContent = "";
  createDOMNodes(page);
  showContent(page);
}

// Get 10 images from NASA API
async function getNasaPictures() {
  // Show Loader
  loader.classList.remove("hidden");
  try {
    const response = await fetch(apiUrl);
    resultsArray = await response.json();
    updateDOM("results");
  } catch (error) {
    // Catch Error Here
  }
}

// Add result to favorites
function saveFavorite(itemUrl) {

  resultsArray.forEach((item) => {

      favorites[itemUrl] = item;
      // Show save confirmation for 2 seconds
      saveConfirmed.hidden = false;
      setTimeout(() => {
        saveConfirmed.hidden = true;
      }, 2000);
      // Set Favorites in Local Storage
