We should bring back ticker-tape parades starting with the crew of Artemis II!

For the more technically precise nerds - The Orion spacecraft fires its thrusters to apply a delta-V, changing its velocity and fine-tuning the return path to Earth. 🌏🌍🌎

During Artemis Il's return trajectory correction burn, Orion fired its thrusters for just seconds in the dark — a tiny tweak after an already super-precise journey. Earlier, they even skipped an outbound correction because the navigation was that good. Precision engineering + calm crew calls = epic deep-space vibes!

They always turn on the wrong cam, so we can't see the "good burn" 😕 Now ain't that weird 😮

Changing history, and protecting some really special people. As the NASA Artemis II crew heads home, Jennifer Gratz and the service module propulsion console in the Orion Mission Evaluation Room are watching every burn, including the final return trajectory correction burn—making sure Orion brings its astronauts safely back to Earth.

Next stop: lunar flyby. The Orion spacecraft recently ignited its main engine on the service module for about six minutes to provide about 6,000 pounds of thrust. This maneuver not only sets the Artemis II astronauts on the path to the Moon. It also puts the crew in a free return trajectory, which will allow them to use Moon's gravity to return to Earth.

Homeward bound. 🌎 Now that the NASA Artemis II crew has flown around the Moon, they are officially on their journey home. There is no deorbit burn for Artemis II – only slight trajectory correction burns – as the translunar injection burn that committed the crew to a lunar flyby also guaranteed their return home.
