A first update: The propellant loading is in a successful progress. The core stage is loaded with 96% liquid hydrogen and 62% liquid oxygen. The loading with liquid hydrogen of the upper stage has started. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #Europe #Space #science

Update from the propellant loading. The Core stage status of liquid hydrogen is 100%. The liquid oxygen tank is at 70 %. The upper stage has 72 % of liquid hydrogen. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Today's launch window opens at 0:24 CEST in the night. The Launch window is about 2 hours. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

4 hours to Launch and the Artemis 2 crew has entered the lift at the launch ramp to go into the capsular. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew has reached the top of the rocket, getting their communication devices and space suites before entering the space capsular. The crew that flies to the moon: Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch & Jeremy Hansen #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #Space

The capsule carrying the crew will go to the furthest point from Earth that a human has ever reached. When they pass the back of the Moon, the capsule will be 400,000 km away from Earth. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #Europe #Space #science

The crew will orbit Earth for around 6 days until they reach the correct orbit and speed to go to the moon. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew is no in the Orion capsular and the support technicians help them to prepare everything for them to have a secure flight. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

An error in the Launch termination system was detected. A special technician is working to analyze the error with a tool that was already in use in the Space Shuttle era. The countdown continues but if the error remains, we have a "No Go" for launch. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #Space

Astronauts on Artemis 2 are using tablets to check and make notes during the mission. Christina Koch is the first woman to fly around the moon. Victor Glover is the first black person to fly around the moon. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #Europe #Space #science

The error in the flight termination system has been resolved. The range of the system is "go". A good message for the launch. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The rain storms around Kennedy have been moved away and there is a 80% "go" for launch during the launch window. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

We are around one hour away from opening the launch window. This is another major step forward for humanity in space. The return to the moon is a cooperative project between so many nations. It's a worlds job to bring humans permanently to the moon. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #Europe #Space

The whole Artemis 2 Mission takes around 10 days, with different stage of where the mission could be aboard and to bring the crew secure back home. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew has a heating suite case to heat up there meals. This is picture of the meals and beverages the astronauts have available on Artemis 2. Photo: NASA TV #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science
