I was with Artemis II’s scientists during the Moon fly-by. Here’s what I saw Nature correspondent Alexandra Witze describes the joy and tension at mission control in Houston.

#ArtemisII

Artemis II reveals why humans still love the moon The triumph of NASA’s first crewed lunar mission in a half-century is a reminder of what the moon really means for Earth—and why we’re going back

“Our lunar companion is today as much a part of our living world as every organism on Earth—and always has been.” - @leebillings.bsky.social

A gray cat looks away from a television screen on which the Artemis II capsule is floating in the ocean. Oh Fiona.

Fiona confirms, this is the correct take

Now on @sciam.bsky.social: Why go to the moon? NASA's triumphant Artemis II mission is a reminder of all the reasons our lunar companion is a fundamental part of Earth's past, present, and future.

If you're wondering why Earth looks so distorted - its a result from the SuperView capture mode enabled on the GoPro HERO4 to stetch the native 4:3 image to 16:9.
Here I'm showing the unstretching process I'm applying in Blender. #Artemis

We look beautiful. I know, because Victor Glover said so.

The #ArtemisII astronauts are almost home. Integrity will enter Earth's atmosphere in a little over four hours. Catch up on what to expect from the mission's heat shield, from @swapnakrishna.com

Would have brought a tent and camped out if they’d let me

The world's first view of Earth taken by a spacecraft from the vicinity of the Moon. The photo was transmitted to Earth by the United States Lunar Orbiter I and received at the NASA tracking station at Robledo De Chavela near Madrid, Spain. This crescent of the Earth was photographed August 23, 1966 at 16:35 GMT when the spacecraft was on its 16th orbit and just about to pass behind the Moon. Credit: NASA.

Earthset captured through the Orion spacecraft window at 6:41 p.m. EDT, April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II crew’s flyby of the Moon. A muted blue Earth with bright white clouds sets behind the cratered lunar surface. The dark portion of Earth is experiencing nighttime. On Earth’s day side, swirling clouds are visible over the Australia and Oceania region. In the foreground, Ohm crater has terraced edges and a flat floor interrupted by central peaks—formed when the surface rebounded upward during the impact that created the crater. Image Credit: NASA.

On Monday this week, as four humans flew around the far side of the Moon, Nature correspondent Alexandra Witze sat at the heart of the Artemis II mission’s science operations. Here's what she saw.

Oh this is a fun view. The Orientale basin on the limb of the Moon as seen through an Orion capsule window. You can see, especially at around 7:00, lines of impact craters marking the giant splat of ejecta that was thrown out of the crater during the impact. www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2...

You can talk about future missions but not about how to do them

hey Venus looks cool

let’s go there

Um OKAY. Breathtaking photos from the Artemis II crew's lunar flyby and eclipse viewing

And here’s the eclipse photo from Artemis II. I am in tears.

Earthset from Artemis II. I am overcome.

Communications are back, with a crescent view of Earth about 252,000 miles away.

The #ArtemisII crew just passed behind the Moon and have lost contact for around 40 minutes. Utter isolation, magnificent desolation.
