NASA Artemis II Scripts History; Sets World Record For Farthest Human Travel At 406771 KM From Earth

NASA’s Artemis II makes history as four astronauts—Reid Wiseman, Christina Koch, Victor Glover, and Jeremy Hansen—retu safely after a 10-day lunar flyby. The mission sets a record, traveling 406,771 km from Earth, the farthest humans have ever gone. The Orion spacecraft completes a flawless reentry at Mach 33 before splashing down near San Diego, marking a major step toward future Moon landings.
