Foreshadowing.
The shadow of downtown KC casts on to high level clouds above the K. One of the coolest pictures I think I’ve gotten lucky enough to take at the K. Especially with where we will be moving to. So cool.

The Artemis II crew surprised Jack, a 5-year-old aspiring astronaut from Atlanta who went viral during the launch, with a signed orange flight suit just like the one worn aboard Orion. The astronauts told him they wanted him “on their team,” and said they were grateful for his enthusiasm and how inspired he’s been by the mission.

Through the windows of the past, we look to the future.

The eclipse from Orion.

On April 6, external cameras attached to the Orion spacecraft's solar array wings captured the Moon backlit by the Sun during a solar eclipse.

Right now, the Orion capsule is passing behind the Moon, so the Sun is entirely eclipsed from their perspective. During this time, they will view a mostly darkened Moon and will use the opportunity to analyze the solar corona.

"Welcome to my old neighborhood." Our @NASAArtemis II astronauts woke up on the sixth day of their mission to a special message recorded in 2025 by astronaut Jim Lovell, the pilot of Apollo 8.

One last look at Earth before we reach the Moon.

This view of the Earth was captured on April 5, the fourth day of the Artemis II mission, from inside the Orion spacecraft. The four astronauts will reach their closest approach of the Moon tomorrow, April 6.

Nominal translunar injection burn complete. The Artemis II crew is officially on the way to the Moon.

America is back in the business of sending astronauts to the Moon. This time, farther than ever before.

America’s next leap is underway..
Godspeed Artemis II 🇺🇸

DYK: Buck O’Neil was the first Black coach in NL/AL history when he joined the Chicago Cubs coaching staff in 1962. Working for the Cubs as a scout into the late 1980s, O’Neil helped discover Hall of Famers Lou Brock and Lee Smith, five-time All-Star Joe Carter, and 17-year veteran Oscar Gamble. #BlackHistoryMonth

The @Space_Station rarely makes big changes to its orientation, but we were lucky to experience such maneuvers (flipping around to fly butt-first, then flipping back again) before and after each @spacex CRS-33 reboost. This 60x speed timelapse was one of my favorites since it captures a little of everything - sunset, lightning storms, air glow, moon glint, stars, and sunrise - as we did one (actually very slow) orbital cartwheel from Atlantic to Pacific.
