Artemis II crew photos Moon during mission

The Artemis II crew captured a final image of the Moon before sleeping on flight day five, as the celestial body appeared close in the Orion spacecraft's window. As the astronauts approach the critical reentry phase into Earth's atmosphere, global attention will focus on the Orion capsule and its occupants. Public observation of the capsule's interior has revealed details of the astronauts' daily lives, including communication screens and the spacecraft's bathroom facilities. Every technological component within the Orion capsule is engineered not only to endure the intense G-forces of launch and landing but also to enhance human interaction and usability.
