The Artemis II crew are returning back to earth after completing their circling around the moon. It’s been more than half a century since Apollo moon landings, but Nasa’s latest lunar flyby now marks the furthest humans have travelled. The four astronauts are due to splash down in the Pacific Ocean in the next 24 hours, following their 10-day stint in space.
The mission’s spacecraft, Orion, broke the record previously held by the Apollo 13 mission in 1970, travelling 252,756 miles (406,771 km) from earth – and Lego has celebrated the historic launch with a space set.
