Being in the vacuum chamber has us breathless 😲

The #Artemis II spacecraft is currently undergoing electromagnetic interference/compatibility testing inside one of the altitude chambers at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, upgraded to test Orion in a vacuum environment that simulates an altitude

The Orion Spacecraft team from @nasaglenn is so excited for the total eclipse today here at the Great Lakes Science Center in Ohio! It’s been great to talk about exploration with #Artemis during this awesome celestial event.

We have liftoff for the Texas Space Commission!

Gov. Greg Abbott launched 🚀 the Texas Space Commission today, here at Johnson Space Center.

Texas and state Legislature passed the Texas Space Commission to allow the State of Texas to take a more profound lead and increase

Artemis II crew weekly update for March 11-22, 2014. I will strive to post these on X (and IG) weekly as we work towards launch next year. Cheers!

Merci, National Centre for Space Studies President Philippe Baptiste and Consul General of France in Houston Valérie Baraban, for visiting Orion Spacecraft! It was a pleasure to show you our spacecraft mockup and share our international passion for exploring the cosmos with #Artemis .

We're getting ready to take Orion for a spin 🚀

On #Artemis II, astronauts will pilot the Orion spacecraft for the first time. Learn more about this first test, called the proximity operations demonstration, when Orion's crew will take the reins: go.nasa.gov/4amk8E1

A big thank you from Orion Spacecraft to the Northrop Grumman Propulsion Systems & Controls team for their contributions to our successful #Artemis I mission around the Moon!

What a kick representing Orion Spacecraft during Saturday's Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo opening ride! Thank you Rodeo Board Chair Pat Mann Phillips for the opportunity to get #SpaceCity excited about our spacecraft and humanity's return to the Moon with #Artemis .

Privileged to speak today to #Artemis suppliers from across all 50 states that are working hard on our shared goal of taking humans back to the Moon and on to Mars.

Odysseus passes over the near side of the Moon following lunar orbit insertion on 21FEB2024. The lander continues to be in excellent health in lunar orbit.

Fantastic trip to San Diego this week! We visited our dedicated Orion Spacecraft suppliers Rayotek and Applied Composites, as well as recovery tests on the USS San Diego the U.S. Navy and NASA's Exploration Ground Systems are performing to safely retrieve Orion after it splashes down in the ocean.

Ready to wiggle with excitement?

The Orion Spacecraft spacecraft for the #Artemis II mission recently received its latest makeover. Teams adhered the agency’s iconic “worm” logo and European Space Agency insignia on the spacecraft’s crew module adapter.

Excellent visit to University of Texas at San Antonio this week, meeting the students that are our future of exploration and touring the school's engineering department. Looking forward to seeing these faces in the aerospace field!

First look inside the spacecraft that will carry humans back to the Moon👀

Teams at NASA's Kennedy Space Center are working on the crew cabin that will take #Artemis II astronauts around the Moon — finalizing the interior, installing protective backshell panels and insulation on the exterior,

Thank you Big Ideas and the Royalcom1851 for having me as a guest on 'Aspire to Engineer: To the Moon.' We spoke to over 4,000 primary and secondary school students in the UK and hopefully inspired many future space engineers to help people go to Mars!

One year ago today, NASA’s Orion spacecraft reentered the atmosphere after completing a 1.4 million-mile, 25.5 day #Artemis I mission around the Moon. View the full length video here: images.nasa.gov/details/art001…

This day last year our spacecraft returned home safely after traveling to the Moon. An emotional and proud day for the me and whole Orion team who worked so hard to make it happen!

Flight Day 25: Jackie Geyer, wife of late Orion Program Manager, NASA's Johnson Space Center Director, and devout St. Louis Cardinals fan Mark Geyer, looks back on his dedication to Orion and seeing the success of #Artemis I, with a tribute to her husband flying inside the spacecraft.

Flight Day 25: Orion is in the home stretch of its journey, just one day away from its return to Earth and re-entry back into the atmosphere at nearly 25,000 mph. Randy Bresnik remembers the excitement of preparing for splashdown.

Flight Day 24: Mission Control teams conduct spacecraft system checks ahead of Orion’s splashdown, while the recovery team makes its way toward the landing area off the Baja Coast. European Space Agency European Service Module Command & Data Handling Lead Luca Fossati reflects on Orion's return.
