Splashdown.
After traveling 1.4 million miles through space, orbiting the Moon, and collecting data that will prepare us to send astronauts on future #Artemis missions, the @NASA_Orion spacecraft is home.

Humbling.
This is the whole world in one photo, taken by @NASA_Orion’s solar array wing camera from just above the lunar surface. It just keeps getting better.

NASA will attempt to change the motion of an asteroid by crashing a spacecraft into it. It's a test to see if this method of asteroid deflection would be a way to protect us if an asteroid was on a collision course with Earth in the future. 7:14 pm ET 9/26 youtube.com/watch?v=4RA8Tfa6…

We're now targeting Saturday, Sept. 3 for the launch of the #Artemis I flight test around the Moon. The two-hour launch window opens at 2:17 p.m. ET (18:17 UTC).

The rocket has an orange central fuel tank with two white rocket boosters on either side. The boosters have the word NASA painted vertically on them in red in the iconic "NASA Worm" typeface. The typeface resembles a worm. Photo credit: NASA/Joel Kowsky

Once Artemis I leaves the launch pad, you can follow along with @NASA_Orion in real time! Use the Artemis Real-Time Orbit Website (AROW) to track Orion during its mission to the Moon and back: go.nasa.gov/3AyFaz7
On Monday (8/29) the first launch opportunity of NASA's Space Launch System and NASA’s Orion Spacecraft will take place. The uncrewed #Artemis mission around the Moon will pave the way for future crewed missions and begin a new chapter of exploration. go.nasa.gov/3AKeT2b

Our live launch coverage for #Artemis I starts at 6:30am ET (10:30 UTC) on Monday, Aug. 29—but there's plenty more to tune in for!
Here's our full @NASAArtemis broadcast schedule, starting Aug. 22: go.nasa.gov/3ACcBSo
ALT NASA's Artemis I rocket—a tall, cylindrical, orange core stage, with two white-and-black boosters aside it and the conical Orion spacecraft on top—stands at the top of a small incline against a bright blue, early-morning sky. A black banner reading "ARTEMIS: WE ARE GOING" is at the foot of the hill, covered in signatures from the workers who made Artemis possible.
