Splashdown! Artemis II crew is back on Earth after flyby of the moon [i]The first astronauts to fly by the moon in more than 50 years are back on Earth. Artemis II mission commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover and mission specialist Christina Koch, all with NASA, and Canadian Space Agency mission specialist Jeremy Hansen splashed down aboard their Orion spacecraft "Integrity" in the Pacific Ocean, off the coast of San Diego, on Friday (April 10). The 8:07 p.m. EDT (5:07 p.m. PDT local time or 0007 GMT on April 11) landing brought to an end a history-making 10 days that for the majority of people alive was the first time humans traveled beyond low Earth orbit in their lifetime. The last time was during the Apollo 17 mission in 1972.[/i]
