We’re going back to the Moon on February 6, and no one is talking about it Artemis II is NASA’s first crewed Moon flyby mission in decades, sending four astronauts around the Moon and back in a ~10-day test flight before future lunar landings Who excited?

Leaving Earth orbit, ✅. Next up: Finalizing the Moon observation plan. Artemis II is both a test flight and a science mission. Astronauts, flight controllers, & science teams are working together to squeeze as much knowledge as possible out of the crew’s lunar flyby. ⬇️ (1/6)

🇺🇸Artemis II launched yesterday, sending four astronauts on the first crewed mission to the Moon in more than 50 years. The crew has already spent a full day in space and completed early milestones, including manually piloting the Orion spacecraft. Today they will perform the critical trans-lunar injection burn that will send them on their path toward the Moon. The roughly 10 day journey includes a close flyby of the lunar surface before using the Moon’s gravity to slingshot them back to Earth for a splashdown in the Pacific Ocean. Source: NASA

BREAKING: NASA has launched four astronauts on a mission to circle the Moon, marking the first human journey back to deep space in 54 years, and the farthest distance from Earth humans will have ever traveled to date. The four astronauts on this Artemis II mission will travel 600,000 miles around the moon. During their 10-day trip, they’ll test life support systems in the Orion capsule for future crewed missions to the moon’s surface. A moon landing would occur during Artemis III, which is currently targeted to launch sometime in 2027.

NASA is heading back to the moon as astronauts board the Artemis II launch pad. Four astronauts will go on a roughly 10-day journey that will take them around the Moon in a lunar flyby. Ok flat earthers… if the earth is flat, where are they really heading?

Voyager made a strategic investment in Max Space to advance the development of next-generation expandable space habitats supporting sustained lunar operations and future deep-space missions. This investment directly supports NASA's Artemis Program and aligns with Administrator Isaacman's commitment to be on the Moon to stay by 2028. It also strengthens Voyager's broader lunar roadmap, spanning cislunar mission management, surface logistics, propulsion, power systems and future surface infrastructure. The Moon isn't a destination. It's an operational domain. And we're building the foundation to treat it that way. Learn more here: $VOYG #missionready
