Artemis II crew returns

The Artemis II astronauts have returned to Earth following their historic mission around the far side of the Moon.

NASA and Lockheed Martin are currently analyzing data from the Orion capsule, including the performance of its heat shield during re-entry.

The crew, including Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, will hold a post-flight news conference in Houston on Thursday.

The mission has already inspired a new generation of student rocket builders and provided a significant boost to space-themed educational programs.
