Look how far we've come. Couldn’t have done it without you. 💚

On this , we're taking a look back at Mother Earth—and celebrating those that propel us further in our growth, inspire our curiosity, and challenge us to do better.

Make some space for the II crew!
Orion’s seats are designed to be folded and stowed to make more room for our crew as they fly to the Moon. The Artemis II crew recently practiced procedures to stow their seats during training at NASA's Johnson Space Center.

Come to the dark side….of the Moon! 🌑

On II, our crew will travel approximately 4,600 miles beyond the far side of the Moon. But not to worry — NASA’s force will still be with them.

Happy !

The training team put together a great full dayfull-day event for the crew in our Orion mockup where we went through the choreography of our first day on orbit during Artemis II, including enjoying some space food for lunch and closing the curtains to get ready for sleep.

Round one of vacuum testing done and one step closer to flying crew around the Moon✅
At NASA's Kennedy Space Center, teams completed electromagnetic testing on the II Orion, now in the Final Assembly and Test cell preparing for round two of vacuum tests. More: go.nasa.gov/3QpNmuq

New Orion pics👀✨

At NASA's Kennedy Space Center, teams moved the II stack into a vacuum chamber, where it will undergo electromagnetic compatibility and interference testing to confirm Orion can safely fly through harsh electric fields.
