NASA’s Artemis II capsule returns to launch site after lunar flight

The same Artemis II crew but 2 different Presidents. The joy is far long gone.

NASA’s Artemis II capsule returned to Florida’s Kennedy Space Center on Tuesday, almost a month after blasting off on humanity’s first lunar trip in more than a half-century. 🧪

“To get in there, you have to be very smart. You have to be physically good, so I wouldn’t had any problem making it. I’m physically very good…” “Is a president allowed to go up in one of these missions?” —tRump, to the Artemis II Crew after meeting them in the WH. #ProudBlue #ArtemisII

Well BOOOOO to the Artemis II crew for meeting with tRUMP! WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT??

Forget about No Kings, this Artemis II astronaut’s response to a typically on-brand Donald Trump made her everyone’s Queen today www.thepoke.com/2026/04/30/forget-about-no-kings-this-artemis-ii-astronauts-response-to-a-typically-on-brand-donald-trump-made-her-everyones-queen-today/

I can't be the only one who wants to see the Artemis II crew visit Carney lol

Very cool site that organizes all of the official Artemis II photos into an interactive timeline. artemistimeline.com

Small device from Downers Grove energetic and electro-mechanical manufacturer played big role in Artemis II mission

Hank Green made this wonderful, interactive timeline of the Artemis II’s trek to the moon. I take for granted how easily available NASA makes these images (and exif data!) to the public. They even provided real-time tracking and trajectory. artemistimeline.com#jeremy-hanse...

$93B spent. No moon landing yet. Artemis III just got stripped of its surface mission — pushed to 2028. The hardware's arriving. The ambition keeps shrinking. https://crowdbyte.ai/topics/nasa-artemis-ii-capsule-returns-to-launch-site-artemis-iii-hardware-begins-arriving-at-kennedy-space-center
