For the first time, the Artemis II crew returning to the Moon next year visited the site where the European Service Module is being developed in Bremen, Germany. BELLA RICHARDS explores why this visit was so significant, and how the Artemis programme has been a symbol of global collaboration amid the ongoing tensions on Earth, and in space.

NASA has moved the mobile launcher tower for the Artemis 2 mission to the launch pad to conduct some tests ahead of the crewed mission to the Moon.

In the second of a series entitled “ARTEMIS - Future of Tomorrow,” Terry Spain and Steve Wilson had the opportunity to talk with NASA Lead Launch Project Engineer with the Exploration Ground Systems, Tony Bartolone. The conversation took place in the Firing Room at NASA.

Artemis II will be the first crewed flight test of the new SLS rocket.

The launch is not slated until 2024, but teams are already prepping for a safe landing at Kennedy Space Center.

NASA won't be flying astronauts to the moon until at least 2024, but are already prepping for good and bad scenarios for Artemis II when the Orion capsule splashes back down on Earth.

The 5,000 mph reentry was a rough one and one of the four astronauts who just spent a week orbiting the moon has a spinal injury. That was the scenario being practiced by NASA’s Landing and Recovery team for Artemis II, which plans to fly humans beyond low-Earth orbit in 2024.

The Orion spacecraft could be on its first trip to the moon on the Artemis I mission in less than a month, but teams at Kennedy Space Center continue to prep the next capsules planned for human missions, the first of which could fly in just over 18 months.
