Artemis II Flight Day 10: Crew Sets for Final Burn, Splashdown - NASA

The Artemis II crew — NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen — began the final phase of their journey home to the songs “Run to the Water” by Live, selected by the crew, and “Free” by Zac Brown Band, as they prepared for their third return trajectory correction burn and shifted into full re-entry and splashdown preparations. When they woke up, they were 61,326 miles from Earth.

CACI Proudly Contributes Laser Communications and Sensing Technology to NASA’s Historic Artemis II Mission

CACI International Inc ( NYSE: CACI ) announced today it has successfully enabled advanced optical communications and sensing technologies for NASA’s Artemis II mission, the first crewed flight of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft. “Artemis II represents the strength of American innovation and the power of partnership across government, industry, and academia,” said John Mengucci , CACI President and Chief Executive Officer. “As a long-standing mission partner, CACI is honored to support NASA as it leads humanity back to the Moon, and our teams are proud to contribute technology that helps enable safe, reliable human spaceflight. This is how we expand the limits of national security every day.” O2O: The Laser Link Connecting Artemis Astronauts to Earth in Real Time Onboard the Artemis II Orion spacecraft is CACI’s optical communications modem module, developed in partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Laboratory.
