NASA’s Artemis II mission is set to launch a diverse crew of astronauts on a historic journey around the moon, marking the first human flight to Earth’s satellite in over 50 years. With the Orion spacecraft, the crew will travel approximately 250,000 miles, pushing the boundaries of space exploration and setting the stage for future lunar and Mars missions.
