Moon Minute: Recovering NASA's Artemis II Crew | Kennedy Space Center

Here is the latest update for NASA's Artemis campaign. It features the upcoming Underway Recovery Test (a test for teams to practice recovering the Artemis crew from their mission around the Moon)—explained by Artemis II mission specialist Christina Koch!

The Artemis II test flight will be NASA’s first mission with crew under the Artemis campaign, sending NASA astronauts Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Reid Wiseman, as well as Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut Jeremy Hansen, on a 10-day journey around the Moon and back.

Artemis II will launch no earlier than April 2026.
