"The Artemis II crew represents thousands of people working tirelessly to take us to the stars. This is the crew of humanity. Each has his or her own story, but together they embody our credo: E pluribus unum, or 'Out of many, one.'"
"The mission will last about 10 days. During this period, the team will evaluate the performance of Orion's operational and life support systems, which are critical for future missions."
NASA is preparing for the Artemis II mission, marking the return of crewed lunar flights after over 50 years. The mission will include a diverse crew: the first woman, the first Black astronaut, and the first non-US astronaut. Scheduled for launch on April 1, the mission will last about 10 days, during which the Orion spacecraft will orbit Earth and approach the moon. The crew will evaluate critical systems for future lunar missions, aiming for a return to the lunar surface by 2028.
