Artemis II capsule returns to Kennedy Space Center after historic moon voyage

It splashed down, then traveled home for final processing

NASA’s Artemis II crew module has returned to Florida’s Kennedy Space Center nearly a month after launching on the first crewed lunar mission in over 50 years. The capsule, carrying four astronauts who orbited the Moon, is now back at its start point for post-mission processing and analysis, marking another milestone in the Artemis program’s push toward sustained exploration.
