00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:49.039
will take NASA astronauts Reed Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Coch,
10
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:53.159
and the Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy on an approximately
11
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:56.520
ten day journey around the Moon and back aboard their
12
00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:04.799
Orion spacecraft. Tonight, the half moon doesn't rise until after midnight,
13
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:09.040
giving you dark skies all evening. Great night for deep

to the Moon. The Artemis two Orion spacecraft is performing
19
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:36.480
well with only minor issues. The cabin was colder on Thursday,
20
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:39.439
but the crew has been able to adjust the temperature.

NASA's first Artemis two science officers, Kelsey Young, Trevor Graff,
22
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.159
and Angela Garcia, are pioneering a new era of mission
23
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:56.719
operations by integrating advanced lunar science directly into mission control.
