Artemis II Mission Marks Historic Moon Journey

For 10 days, four astronauts aboard NASA’s Artemis II mission pushed the boundaries of human spaceflight, travelling farther from Earth than any crew before them on a historic journey to the Moon and back. From liftoff at Kennedy Space Center to their dramatic return, the mission captured global attention. The launch itself was a powerful spectacle—blinding light, thunderous sound, and intense vibrations—as the massive rocket carried the crew into space at extraordinary speed. Inside the Orion capsule, astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen lived and worked in tight quarters roughly the size of a minibus. Despite the limited space and lack of privacy, they conducted scientific experiments, rehearsed procedures, and maintained strict routines throughout the journey. The mission also highlighted the realities of space travel. Even basic systems, such as the spacecraft’s toilet, faced technical challenges, […]

Artemis II crew returns after record space journey

The crew of NASA’s Artemis II mission has safely returned to Earth after re-entering the atmosphere at speeds of up to 40,000 km/h, completing a historic journey that took them farther into space than any humans before. Their mission ended with a successful splashdown off the coast of California. During the flight, the astronauts traveled more than 4,000 miles beyond the previous human distance record set during the Apollo 13 mission in 1970, marking a new milestone in deep space exploration. Immediate medical checks and recovery Following their return, the crew—Reid Wiseman, Christina Koch, Victor Glover and Jeremy Hansen—underwent initial medical examinations aboard the recovery vessel before being transported to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston for further evaluation. Although the mission lasted only about 10 days, time spent in microgravity still affects the human body. Reduced gravity leads to […]

Artemis II crew returns after historic Moon mission

The crew of NASA’s Artemis II mission has safely returned to Earth, completing a historic journey around the Moon that took them farther into space than any humans before. The mission concluded with a successful splashdown in the Pacific Ocean after a precise and carefully managed re-entry. The Orion spacecraft entered Earth’s atmosphere from an altitude of about 400,000 feet, undergoing a planned six-minute communications blackout before descending toward the ocean. Within 13 minutes, the capsule completed its return, deploying parachutes to slow its descent before landing safely at sea. Mission commander Reid Wiseman confirmed the crew’s status shortly after splashdown, reporting that all four astronauts were safe and in good condition. Recovery teams quickly transported them to the US Navy vessel USS John P. Murtha for initial medical checks, before their return to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston […]

Artemis II success boosts Moon mission hopes

NASA’s Artemis II mission has successfully completed a historic journey around the far side of the Moon, safely returning four astronauts to Earth and reigniting global interest in human space exploration. The Orion spacecraft performed as expected, while images captured during the mission have inspired a new generation to imagine life beyond Earth. However, despite this achievement, experts caution that the most difficult phase of the Artemis programme still lies ahead. While orbiting the Moon is a major milestone, establishing a sustained human presence there—or eventually reaching Mars—remains uncertain. A new ambition beyond Apollo When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the Moon in 1969, many believed it would mark the beginning of permanent human activity in space. Instead, the Apollo programme ended after achieving its geopolitical objective during the Cold War. This time, NASA’s vision is more ambitious. […]

Artemis II astronauts capture Moon fly-by images

NASA has released the first images captured by astronauts aboard the Artemis II mission during their fly-by of the Moon, offering rare and striking views of Earth and space. One of the standout images shows an “Earthset,” with our planet appearing to dip behind the Moon’s rugged, crater-filled surface. The scene echoes the iconic Earthrise photograph taken during Apollo 8 by astronaut Bill Anders, a picture widely regarded as one of the most influential environmental images ever captured. Another photograph reveals a dramatic solar eclipse observed from space, as the Moon completely blocked the Sun. From the crew’s vantage point aboard the Orion spacecraft, the eclipse lasted far longer than what is typically visible from Earth—nearly 54 minutes of totality. Astronaut Victor Glover described the experience as “unreal” and “sci-fi,” highlighting the glowing solar corona forming a bright halo around […]

Artemis II Shares First Stunning Earth Images

NASA has released the first high-resolution images of Earth captured by the Artemis II crew as they travel toward the Moon. The photos were taken by mission commander Reid Wiseman shortly after the spacecraft completed its critical translunar injection burn, which placed the Orion capsule on a path toward the Moon. One of the standout images, titled Hello, World, shows Earth from deep space, dominated by the blue Atlantic Ocean. The planet is outlined by a thin glowing atmosphere, with green auroras visible near both poles. In the frame, parts of the western Sahara, the Iberian Peninsula, and eastern South America can be seen. A bright نقط in the background was identified as Venus. Another image, taken through one of Orion’s windows, captures Earth from inside the spacecraft, offering a perspective that highlights both the scale of space and the […]

Artemis II: US returns to deep space race

The United States is preparing for a historic return to deep space, with a new Moon mission that could carry major political, economic and strategic implications. Scheduled for launch this week, the Artemis II mission will send four astronauts farther into space than any human has travelled since the Apollo program era ended in 1972. Beyond its scientific goals, the mission arrives at a sensitive moment for Donald Trump, whose administration faces deep domestic divisions over foreign policy, immigration and economic pressures. A mission with political weight Although plans to return to the Moon predate Trump, his administration played a key role in shaping the Artemis programme during his first term. At the time, he emphasized ambitions extending to Mars and established the United States Space Force. In his current term, the focus has shifted back to the Moon. A […]
