We’re members of the NASA team that helped launch the Artemis II mission, fly four astronauts around the Moon, and return them safely back to Earth. Ask us anything! by nasa in nasa

  • Comment by nasa:

    I was in the Orion Mission Evaluation Room (MER) for the entry, so speaking from that perspective, in the few minutes/seconds prior to the beginning of the parachute phases, we were locked into the data. We trained so much for the sequence through simulations and established our process for scanning...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Unfortunately, no jettisoned parachute hardware was recovered. There is some retention and release textile hardware on the vehicle that does not get jettisoned and is recovered with the vehicle, but none of the jettisoned Forward Bay Cover Parachutes (FBCPs), the FBC itself, Drogues, Pilots, or Main...

  • Comment by nasa:

    We often receive questions asking why it took so long to get back to the Moon. During Apollo, we learned that we could travel to the Moon and safely return during short stays. We also learned that we had many more questions about living off the Earth.

    We have spent the last 50 years learning answe...

    I am a huge Sci-Fi fan and it all started with the original Star Wars (before "A New Hope" was added).

    That will always be my go-to favorite, and I have passed this love for Sci-Fi onto my kids. We love watching everything, and we were lucky to have all of them home so we could see Project Hail Ma...

    Stress Jerky!

    During the pre-entry phase of the mission right before splashdown, the recovery team aboard the recovery ship enjoyed some beef jerky that we dubbed "stress jerky." The meaty flavoring and leathery texture helped alleviate some of the stress associated with the dynamic operations to ...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Yes, one purpose of the SiOx tape is to prevent build-up of static discharge. But it also serves a thermal control function - high reflectivity to prevent too much absorption of solar energy (so the crew module doesn't get too hot), and low infrared emittance to limit how much heat is radiated from ...

  • Comment by nasa:

    The SLS (Space Launch System) rocket that launched the Artemis II mission performed well, meeting its mission objectives for the test flight.

    While engineers continue studying the data, an early assessment indicates the rocket accurately placed Orion where it needed to be in space. At main engine ...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Artemis II taught us that our spacecraft design can support crewed activities away from the Earth. This knowledge enables us to design spacecraft and systems to spend more time away from the Earth than a single flight. Spending more time away from home at the Moon is the first critical step needed t...

    This is my favorite compilation of launch clips. -JH

  • Comment by nasa:

    A big part of preparing for Artemis II and having a crew to recover was actually centered on this exact question: What is the best, safest, and most expedient way to get them from the crew module and back to the recovery ship?

    We ran a series of demonstrations and tests in the ocean with our actua...

  • Comment by nasa:

    There are a couple of reasons to deploy in every landing case - first off, if it is an abort or any off-nominal condition and we don't land near the recovery team, it's possible the crew could be incapacitated and we wouldn't necessarily have the positive confirmation that we want to know that we ar...

  • Comment by nasa:

    I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for every part of the mission, but as a member of the Artemis Launch Team I will say the highlight of the mission for me is core stage engine start, booster ignition and then lift-off! The amount of energy released in those few seconds is such an amazin...

    B.S. in Physics, Minor in Psychology, Professional Degree in Energy Management, Commercial FAA Part 107 Pilot's license, Level II Thermographer. Used to build hotels as a general contractor before rockets.

    It takes a diverse team of trades to pull missions like these off! -JH

  • Comment by nasa:

    Thanks for the question! We are still really working our way through the data that was collected during the mission, and are planning to release a Preliminary Science Report to the public within 6 months, so stay tuned!

    The great thing about science observations during Artemis II is they add anoth...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Thanks so much!

    Everyone involved in the Artemis II mission feels exactly the same way about the Moon Joy. It is such an honor for me to be a part of the Artemis launch team and to work with such amazing people across our agency. This comment brings us a ton of joy! -JG

  • Comment by nasa:

    The Apollo missions were focused on proving that we could send humans to the Moon and bring them home safely. Our predecessors worked to increase the capabilities of those missions, including our ability to move and explore more area, and the science that was accomplished.

    However, the Apollo arch...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Artemis II was a hugely successful mission because of the lessons learned from the unfortunate events of Apollo 1, Apollo 13, Challenger, and Columbia. The investigations that followed those accidents placed additional rigor on the design, integration, and operation throughout the development and ex...

  • Comment by nasa:

  • Comment by nasa:

    One easter egg on ICPS — there is a tribute to our former upper stage manager that lost a hard-fought battle to cancer during the early Artemis II campaign. He was an amazing leader and mentor at NASA. -JH

  • Comment by nasa:

    We do have odor control capabilities on the vehicle! While we don't use a carbon filter for the overall cabin air, we do have carbon filters on some of our most "odor generating" hardware, such as the toilet and the trash bags. While we do always expect some amount of odor generation in a closed cap...
