Daniel FischerThe next #ArtemisII Daily News Conference is coming up at the top of the hour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZFM9ywOpl0 (and later we'll have - at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkyUSFYrsKM - the first and only press conference with the crew).

Back to the #ArtemisII launch exactly one week ago - here is a most remarkable Near-Infrared high-resolution video of it: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SJ7aMoRa0wA (particularly clear because long wavelengths are less affected by seeing).

In visible light - and color - the #ArtemisII launch in high resolution is also nice: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/a1uvU8Y7h10

The #ArtemisII Crew News Conference is underway at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkyUSFYrsKM is underway - looong delay between questions and answers.
NASA just dropped a hi-res image from the beginning of the eclipse #ArtemisII experienced at https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2explore/55197506830/ - it's dominated by a broad corona streamer bundle sitting on top of the zodiacal light pyramid. (In https://skyweek.wordpress.com/2026/04/09/allgemeines-live-blog-ab-dem-9-april-2026/#Apr09 I have rotated it so that it matches the SOHO LASCO C2 view which in https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10164990866429808 is matched to the well-known eclipse end picture.) But south of the streamers sits something bright at the lunar limb that baffles me: what can be so bright - and even colorful - at this location when the Sun is already well behind the Moon? Is this astrophysics or rather selenophysics? Ideas?
Meanwhile in an hour on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7PBy4a78Ho the next daily #ArtemisII press conference with details about the Orion's return.

On https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3kR2KK8TEs you can now watch the Earth grow for #ArtemisII ... 3:45 till splash-down.
What a sad moment when the 24/7 #ArtemisII live stream was shut down at 2:20 UTC ...had it on almost, well, 24/7. ;-) Little consolation prize: the Artemis II Post-Splashdown News Conference in a few minutes on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir2X1-FjDxg

Going to the Moon and back apparently makes you … very happy: #ArtemisII astronauts Glover and Koch in the helicopter after landing on the USS John P. Murtha.
It's Bronx! 
@cosmos4u ngl, I spend all those days worried about the re-entry 
@bronx So did I having read about some alleged experts' doubts about the heat shield. So how well did it come through? We'll see soon I guess ...
