If I saw just this picture it would be easy to say it was made in Hollywood, but after having watched #Artemis -1 launch & perform its' test flight so well, so far. it makes these images even more astounding! Godspeed #Artemis -1, looking forward to your splashdown on Sunday!.
We have retrieved signal with @NASA_Orion after an expected loss of signal when the spacecraft flew directly behind the Moon. You can see Earth in the distance. That's us. #Artemis .

So far from home, farthest a spacecraft built for humans has ever travelled from our home planet. @NASA_Orion #Artemis-1 today at nearly 270,000 miles from #Earth 1/2 way through the mission timeline. Splashdown targeted for 11 Dec.
This is RIGHT NOW. @NASA_Orion is looking back at Earth and the Moon from distant retrograde orbit. Watch the #Artemis I livestream:

Our @NASAArtemis #Orion spacecraft is making #selfie history, capturing itself with our entire home planet and all of mankind. It’s plain to see from this perspective that we humans are truly one, all in this together in our one common home. Almost halfway to the Moon already!

Just in case you missed it live early Wed AM. #Artemis-1 'slipping the surly bonds of earth'.
When we go, we go together. The #Artemis team wants to thank everyone who helped us along the way toward the first launch of the @NASA_SLS rocket and @NASA_Orion.

With two of them on the side of the @NASA_SLS rocket, combined with the thrust of the 4 RS-25 engines we can’t wait to hear and feel #Artemis -1 liftoff!.
#DYK each solid rocket booster on @NASA's Space Launch System rocket produces 3.6 million pounds of thrust - equivalent to 14 four-engine jumbo commercial airliners!

Now 4 days and a wake-up to the launch of #Artemis -1 @NASA_SLS & @NASA_Orion spacecraft from @NASAKennedy . Great video overview by @NASAArtemis with the details of the mission. Once this mission is completed, next up is @NASA_Astronauts onboard #Artemis -II to the #moon!.
We are ready. 🚀 . In just five days, the first launch opportunity of the integrated @NASA_SLS rocket and @NASA_Orion spacecraft will take place. The uncrewed #Artemis I mission around the Moon will pave the way for future crewed missions and begin a new chapter of exploration.
