NASA Artemis II returns safely, first crewed lunar mission in 50 years
NASA’s four-member Artemis II crew returned to Earth after about 10 days in lunar orbit, NASA said on April 11. The Orion spacecraft Integrity splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off San Diego, California, at 5:07 p.m., and all aboard were confirmed safe. The mission was NASA’s first crewed lunar-orbit flight in about 50 years and the first crewed test flight of the SLS rocket and Orion capsule.
