Artemis II successfully launched into Earth’s orbit from Florida’s Cape Canaveral on Wednesday, marking the crucial first step in mankind’s historic return to deep space and the moon. A crew of four astronauts, three Americans and one Canadian, are onboard the towering 322-foot rocket for humanity’s first lunar flight since 1972. The perilous 10-day mission is expected to take them 250,000 miles away from home, further from Earth than any human has ever gone.
