Moonbound Episode 2 | For All Humanity | NASA Artemis II Mission

With the Artemis II mission, four astronauts transitioned from years of training to mission-ready reality. The second episode of the NASA+ "Moonbound" series explores the physical and psychological challenges of preparing for a crewed flight around the Moon, and the teamwork required to test new systems at the edge of exploration.

NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on April 10, 2026, concluding the Artemis II mission. Our Artemis II crew accomplished many milestones on their nearly 10-day mission, surpassing the Apollo 13 record for farthest crewed spaceflight and capturing unprecedented views of the far side of the Moon.

Under Artemis, NASA will send astronauts on increasingly difficult missions to explore more of the Moon for scientific discovery, economic benefits, and to build on our foundation for the first crewed missions to Mars.
