It’s been 54 years since we last visited the Moon. It’s an exciting day for science, for NASA and for mankind. The Artemis II launch gives me a lot hope (and anxiety). The rocket will be piloted by 3 americans and 1 canadian. Truly a historic day.
This mission is considered a test flight which consists of two phases:
- testing in orbit for 48 hours
- a lunar flyby and return
Nice little graphic from the Times:
