Training begins for the Artemis II astronauts!

While some of us are enjoying the start of summer vacation, these astronauts have just begun their training for the NASA Artemis II mission around the Moon and back.
The crew will train for about 18 months and receive detailed lessons on the Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System (SLS) rocket that will take them to the Moon. They will also learn to operate and monitor systems for the ascent, orbit and coast, and entry phases of the mission and how to respond in emergency situations.
