NASA’s Artemis II Mission took NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, commander; Victor Glover, pilot; Christina Koch, mission specialist; and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen, mission specialist, on a nearly 10-day journey around the Moon and back to Earth. They can be seen aboard the USS John P. Murtha after the successful splashdown of their Orion spacecraft, named Integrity, in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego at 8:07 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (5:07 p.m. PDT).
During their mission, the astronauts completed a historic lunar flyby, marking humanity’s return to the vicinity of the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years.
