NASA's historic Artemis 2 mission around the far side of the moon officially ended on April 10, as astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen's Orion spacecraft splashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean, having survived the fires of re-entry.
The 10-day mission saw humans return to lunar space for the first time since Apollo 17 visited the moon over five decades ago, and broke the record for the most distant crewed spaceflight in the history of human space exploration. Christina Koch, meanwhile, became the first woman to travel beyond low Earth orbit and see the far side of the moon, while Victor Glover became the first person of color to witness its barren beauty up close.
