NASA is just days away from historic Artemis II moon launch
NASA is set to launch the Artemis II mission, which will send a four-person crew to fly around the moon. The mission is a key step towards establishing a permanent lunar presence and is scheduled to launch on April 1, with several backup opportunities through April 6.
NASA's Artemis II mission is nearing launch. A four-person crew will fly around the moon in an Orion capsule. The crew includes NASA astronauts and a Canadian Space Agency astronaut. The mission will take several days to reach the moon and will last about ten days. The closest approach to the moon will be about 4,000 to 6,000 miles above the lunar surface. This mission is a step towards a future moon landing and establishing a permanent lunar presence.
