The Artemis 2 solar panels have been constructed at Airbus in the Netherlands. The ESM (The European Service Module) has been mainly constructed in Bremen, Germany. The module is the life boat for the Artemis program. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #ForwardToTheMoon #Europe #Space #science

Currently the crew prepares to film themselves on an exercise session. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Till now, the Artemis 2 mission is a full success and will be bring human space travel a great step forward and humanity closer to return to the moon permanently. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew's exercise session today is their last exercise session before returning to Earth. As of tomorrow the splashdown preparations will start. The cabin has to be prepared and splashdown procedures are been prepared. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #ForwardToTheMoon #Europe #Space #science

Currently the splashdown is planned for Saturday, April 11, 2026 at 2:05am CEST. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

An optical audio and data connection is under test now. The optical, laser based, transmission system allow much higher data bandwidths as the typical radio frequency system. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The optical connection is successfully established. The ground station receives 4k data. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The 4k video stream has been received at the ground station but the transmission to the control room in the Johnson Space Center didn't work. They looking for the error. But for the moment you can say, that laser communication works from Orion to the ground station on Earth. #Artemis2 #Moon #Space

Artemis 2 has completed the radiation shield test. The splashdown preparations of the crew are starting in the next few minutes. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Before splashdown, the Orion capsular separates from the European Service module which remains in the Earth orbit. The separation from the ESM will be in around 2 hours and 2 minutes. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #Europe #Space #science

Two crew members, Commander Reid Wiseman and pilot Victor Glover, are already in their suite and in their seats. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Orion will splashdown in the Pacific ocean. The weather is on "go" for later recovery of the astronauts. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew will be recovered from Orion around 45 minutes to an hour after splashdown. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew communication has been switched back to satellite communication instead of the Deep Space Network. We are around 25 minutes away from European Service Module separation. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #Europe #Space #science

The heat shield of the Orion capsular has been modified and renewed compared to Artemis 1. When the capsular will enter Earths atmosphere the angle will reduce pressure on the heat shield and a faster landing process is planned. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #Europe #Space #science

Orion capsular has successfully connected to the GPS system. The thruster fire test was also successful. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

We have a successful separation from the European Service Module. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

We are 35 minutes away from splashdown and 2 minutes away from the thruster burn to bring Orion in the right position to enter Earths atmosphere. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The crew confirms a good look at the European Service Module. The trajectory correction calculations upon had been processed by the ESA. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The thruster burn was successful. The flight path angle of Orion is in the parameters. The last position change was successful. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Short after re-entry a communication blackout is expected. The blackout will last for 6 minutes and is caused by ionized plasma around the Orion capsular during re-entry #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

We are around 17 minutes from splashdown. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Entry interface has begun. The 6 minutes communication blackout has started. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The cameras from the ships that will recover the astronauts are working, showing the Orion capsular as a white dot on sky. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Data from the Orion capsular is transmitted again. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The trajectory of Orion is perfect. We have audio communication with the astronauts. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Cameras are transmitting live pictures of Orion. The first parachutes are deployed. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The Main parachutes are deployed. All three parachutes are perfectly deployed. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

splashdown confirmed. The astronauts are back on Earth. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Orion capsular swims perfectly in the Pacific ocean, South-west of San Diego. Astronauts communications confirm successful splashdown and all crew members are well. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The historic mission of Artemis 2 around the moon was a full success and many things have been tested and learned for Artemis 3. Artemis 3 launch is expected to launch in 2027. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

Artemis 4 is expected to launch in 2028, bringing humans back to the surface of the Moon. The first moon landing since 1972. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The power down of Orion is necessary before the recovery crews can take the astronauts out of the capsular. The first ship has arrived at the capsular. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science

The astronauts can hear the recovery team already but it seems that the recovery team can not hear them via radio. #Artemis #Artemis2 #NASA #ESA #Moon #WeAreGoing #ForwardToTheMoon #OrionCapsular #SLSrocket #ReturnToMoon #Europe #Space #science
