Four astronauts aboard NASA’s Artemis II mission are preparing for a groundbreaking journey around the moon this Monday, marking a significant milestone in space exploration.
The crew will approach within approximately 4,000 miles of the moon’s surface during their closest pass late Monday evening. This historic mission will also take the astronauts deeper into space than any human beings have ever traveled before.
The Artemis II mission represents a major step forward in NASA’s ambitious plan to return humans to lunar exploration and eventually establish a sustainable presence on the moon’s surface.
