[NASA's Kennedy Space Center @NASAKennedy]

This is your #Artemis Moon Minute!

The Artemis II astronauts got their first look of the @NASA_Orion spacecraft that they will fly around the Moon. Training continues for the crew at @NASA_Johnson’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory to prepare for splashdown. Back at Kennedy, the crew transport vehicles have arrived for @NASAGroundSys teams to begin training to drive the astronauts on their final earth-bound journey before boarding the @NASA_SLS rocket.

🌟 You'll want to watch this window into history. In a new video and @JewishJournal column, @DrBenChavis and former Sen. @JoeLiberman connect the dots between the historic #MarchOnWashington and the mission of #NoLabels, igniting hope for a more harmonious America. Be inspired 🌟
