Show Notes
NASAs Artemis Two mission, launched on April 1, 2026, marked a significant milestone with the first human journey beyond Earth orbit since 1972. Commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen are aboard the Orion capsule, embarking on a ten-day trip around the moons far side. The mission, which began with a powerful engine burn, is currently over 250,000 miles from Earth, testing systems for deeper space travel. The live video feed from inside the capsule offers a glimpse into this historic journey, which is expected to culminate in a Pacific splashdown, paving the way for future lunar exploration.
