NASA's Artemis II mission has made history by capturing the first human view of the Moon's Orientale Basin, as shared in a recent image. This mission, featuring astronauts Jeremy Hansen (Canada), Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and Christina Koch (all from the United States), is significant as it marks the first crewed lunar mission since Apollo 17 in 1972. The Artemis II crew is aboard the Orion spacecraft, which is set to travel over 252,000 miles (400,000 km) from Earth, breaking distance records for human spaceflight. The mission aims to photograph the Moon's far side and is a stepping stone towards NASA's goal of landing astronauts near the lunar south pole by 2028. While the launch went smoothly, the crew is currently dealing with a malfunctioning toilet system, relying on backup urine collection bags until repairs can be made. Despite this challenge, mission officials report that the astronauts are doing well.
