Ooh, now you're letting go 🌕 As our Artemis II astronauts prepare to leave the lunar sphere of influence and return to Earth's gravitational pull, they listened to "Tokyo Drifting," by Denzel Curry and Glass Animals, as their wakeup song.

do you think the moon is happy that people are visiting her after so long

"We aren't going to the Moon, but rather meeting it at an exact point in space. ​And it isn't necessary to spend fuel, either; the calculations are made so that everything works through pure physics and gravity. ​It is flawless."

To commemorate the Artemis II mission, the astronauts announced their suggestion to rename certain features on the Moon to honor the Orion spacecraft, named Integrity, as well as commander Reid Wiseman's late wife, Carroll.

Carroll, now a bright spot on our Moon, because four people, who traveled farther from Earth than any human in the 4.5-billion-year history of Earth has ever been, loved someone so much, they carried her the whole way there.
