This is a replay of the live stream.
Artemis I mission status briefing to preview Orion’s distant retrograde orbit departure on Dec 1 and recovery assets preparations for Dec 11 splashdown in the Pacific Ocean.
The Artemis 1 mission placed the Orion spacecraft into orbit around the moon for 2-4 weeks. Orion will then return to Earth for splashdown in the Pacific Ocean. Ten small CubeSat rideshare payloads will also tag along. This test flight paves the way for the first crewed mission to return humans to the Moon - Artemis 2 - planned for May 2024.
