Why do the Artemis II astronauts keep calling their Orion spacecraft, "Integrity"? The crew chose this name for their home away from home because it "embodies the foundation of trust, respect, candor, and humility" of the teams behind the Artemis II mission.

History in the making In this new image from our @NASAArtemis II crew, you can see Orientale basin on the right edge of the lunar disk. This mission marks the first time the entire basin has been seen with human eyes.

This one is for the Spooks. Confirmation Bob Lazar worked for the government. Confirmation Bob Lazar worked for the Department Of Naval Intelligence. Confirmation that he worked in a USAP (Unacknowledged Special Access Program). Confirmed the W2 from the government is real. The Judge debunked all of you spooks with 3 sentences. I’m not trying to convince anybody but if you think a judge having difficulty getting records being held by DNI isn’t the biggest tell then you just didn’t catch it. They (DNI) don’t want to confirm that he worked for them because they know what he worked on because that would also confirm everything he said about the reverse engineering program was true. S4 is real. The UFO UAP craft(s) is true. (he saw 9 in 1989, Grusch said over 12 in 2023) The advanced technology in human hands is true. The deep unacknowledged special access program legacy is true. UFO UAP👀🛸

Back in Mission Control as CAPCOM with my good friend @astro_luca supporting the @Space_Station crew. @NASA has a lot going on this week, and it’s AWESOME!

Right now, the crew of #Artemis II are taking Orion on a test drive 🚗 They are comparing the more precise 6-degree of freedom mode 🎯 to the more fuel-efficient 3-degree of freedom mode ⛽, using our European Service Module's engines to gather data for future Artemis flights 🚀 esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

It's testament to the safety of Khan's London that you can leave a bag of guns on your doorstep and nobody steals them

Great Tex-Mex feast this evening @LupeTortilla with my pals from @SPACEdotcom and @nss Ad Astra magazine. @BIS_spaceflight #GoArtemisGoFajita

The Orion spacecraft has a couple of backseat drivers.

Artemis II just hit the "two thirds" mark of the journey to the Moon. During Flight Day 4, the astronauts aboard Orion went over plans to study the Moon during their upcoming lunar flyby and are currently practicing manually controlling the spacecraft.

Leaving Earth orbit, ✅. Next up: Finalizing the Moon observation plan. Artemis II is both a test flight and a science mission. Astronauts, flight controllers, & science teams are working together to squeeze as much knowledge as possible out of the crew’s lunar flyby. ⬇️ (1/6)

The Artemis II cubesats TACHELES, SWC-1 and K-RADCUBE have now been identified on Space-Track. ATENEA was not cataloged+was expected to have reentered at 1st perigee since it had no propulsion to raise its orbit. K-RAD may also have reentered, and is reported to have failed

"Houston. We have a problem. We have 2 versions of outlook and neither is working."

I think right now I am about 99% Moon mission glee and 1% hot cross bun. Getting set to do the 0930 Sky News Artemis II daily update.

Artemis II Science Officer, reporting for duty. 🚀 There’s a new “SCIENCE” seat in the main @NASAArtemis flight control room. Yesterday, Kelsey Young of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center became the first person to step into this role during an Artemis mission. ⬇️ (1/4)

NATO was founded 77 years ago today. The UK is a proud member of the most effective security alliance in history 🇬🇧

TOILET UPDATE: It is now available again. Following ~2 hours of pointing the vent at the sun, whatever was blocking it appears to have melted, and a waste dump was conducted. The crew can now dump the contents of their Contingency Urinals as required.
