Cape Canaveral (AFP) – NASA’s Artemis II crew see the Orion spacecraft, which is set to fly them around the Moon, for the first time. “When we first stuck our heads in and you look around in there, you realize this can only be one thing: a spaceship” says Christina Hammock Koch, one of those taking part in the mission. Artemis II is scheduled to take place in late 2024, with the four astronauts completing a trip around the Moon ahead of Artemis III which, in 2025, aims to put humans on the lunar surface for the first time since 1972.
