The four astronauts spent more than nine days in the Orion space capsule on their journey, testing the vehicle for future missions and taking observations of the far side of the moon. It took them farther than any humans have ever traveled in space.

Artemis III prep begins with returning the mobile launcher to Kennedy Space Center's Vehicle Assembly Building using the Crawler-Transporter.

The Orion crew module containing the four Artemis II astronauts splashed down in the Pacific Ocean Friday evening.

The NASA moon mission completed several key milestones as its crew looped around the lunar body. It's expected to splash down on Earth on Friday.

The Artemis II crewmembers are now on their mission to the moon with 189 food items to choose from. NASA and the crew worked together to develop a menu for the mission that includes a wide variety of foods.

Peter Cranis, executive director of the Space Coast Office of Tourism, says the level of excitement is high around NASA's Artemis II launch.

By Wednesday night, astronauts may be rocketing out to the moon for the first time in 53 years. On “Live & Local,” we get the latest on the Artemis II mission. Plus, the Florida scrub jay faces a legal challenge, and we chat with The Zest’s Dalia Colón.

On Wednesday, the crew of NASA's Artemis II could blast off on a mission around the moon and back. No astronaut has ventured out to the moon since the 1970s.

On "The Florida Roundup," Hadfield talks about what it's like to be launched into space, what the Artemis II crew might be navigating as it prepares, his personal connection to one of the members and more.

As four astronauts get set to blast off on humanity's first trip to the moon in more than half a century, comparisons between Apollo and NASA's new Artemis program are inevitable.

Mike Fincke, 59, said the episode lasted roughly 20 minutes and he felt fine afterward. He said he still does. He never experienced anything like that before or since.

The Artemis crew won’t land on the moon this time or even orbit it, but the out-and-back journey will take them thousands of miles deeper into space than even the Apollo astronauts ventured.
