What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.

HEADS UP! 🌒 The moon will turn RED next Tuesday morning on March 3rd across the United States from a Total Lunar Eclipse! The times below are the best viewing opportunities per time zone (weather permitting).
