Artemis II reveals Earth's beauty

The mission marks the first time humans have left low Earth orbit in over five decades, setting a new distance record for crewed spaceflight.

Astronauts reported a relaxed third day in space despite minor technical glitches with Microsoft Outlook and the onboard plumbing.

Scientists are guiding the crew on which lunar features to photograph as they approach the moon's far side.

The mission serves as a critical test for systems that will eventually return humans to the lunar surface.
