Lockheed Martin: "We have completed assembly and testing of NASA's Orion spacecraft for Artemis II and have officially transferred possession to the NASA Ground Systems team!"

"Take a look back at the development of the Orion spacecraft that will carry astronauts back to the Moon."

The Artemis II test flight will be sending NASA astronauts Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Reid Wiseman, as well as Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut Jeremy Hansen, on a ten-day journey around the Moon and back.

Artemis II will launch no earlier than April 2026.
