NASA's Artemis II Astronauts 'Get Hands On' with Orion | Lockheed Martin
This is important training that puts hundreds of opening and closing cycles on a hatch to test its durability. With the need to operate the hatch so many times, the training sessions serve as a great opportunity for the crew to train on the many ways the hatch can operate in a variety of situations.
See how testing is done to simulate real-life mission conditions, and hear firsthand from astronaut Victor Glover about the importance of flight hardware training.
The approximately 10-day Artemis II Mission will be NASA’s first crewed flight test of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft around the Moon to verify today’s capabilities for humans to explore deep space and pave the way for long-term exploration and science on the lunar surface, including landing the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon.
The Artemis II crew module is now undergoing acoustic testing ahead of integration with the European Service Module (ESM).
Artemis II will launch no earlier than September 2025.
