It's Official: Artemis II Has Carried Humans Farther From Earth Than Ever Before

Summary: Artemis II just made history! The spacecraft, named Integrity, carried four astronauts farther from Earth than any humans have ever been. They traveled 248,655 miles away, breaking the old distance record set by Apollo 13 in 1970. Along the way, the crew saw a beautiful Earthrise and took a new photo of our whole planet called "Hello, World." But space travel isn't just about pretty views. The crew also had to deal with normal, everyday problems like fixing the toilet and troubleshooting their email! This mission is a huge step toward sending humans back to the Moon.
