0:03 Calarogus Shark Media. This is Sleep from Space. The Artemis II Moon mission is targeting early February for launch, sending astronauts farther from Earth than anyone has traveled in decades. Space is strange. Radio signals from Earth have been traveling through space for about one hundred years. Any civilization within one hundred light years could potentially detect Us. Jupiter continues to shine brilliantly in the evening sky, while Mars is becoming more prominent, glowing with its characteristic reddish hue low in the eastern sky after midnight. The moon is waning gibbous, rising a bit later each night. Early evening offers good dark sky time before moonrise. This episode was assembled using AI pulling from NASA and Spaceflight News sources. Thanks for listening, Sleep well,
