The Artemis II crew are on their way back to Earth after a record-breaking mission to the far side of the moon. They reached a distance of 252,756 miles from our home planet - the furthest in history.
The ultimate aim of NASA's Artemis programme is to get crewed missions to Mars.
So what did US space experts learn from this mission and how will it help the next stage of the programme, which could see a rocket landing on the moon and ultimately a base being built on the lunar south pole?
Gareth Barlow speaks to space journalist Kate Arkless Gray about how successful the project was and what happens next.
