NASA Progresses Toward Artemis II Moon Mission

NASA Progresses Toward Artemis II Moon Mission

BySpace Streams

Technicians with NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems team use a crane to lift and secure NASA’s Orion spacecraft on top of the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket in High Bay 3 of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Saturday, Oct. 18, 2025, for the agency’s Artemis II mission. Set to launch in 2026, the spacecraft will carry NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen on a 10-day mission around the Moon and back. Once stacked, teams will begin conducting a series of verification tests ahead of rolling out to Launch Complex 39B for the wet dress rehearsal at NASA Kennedy.

Welcome back to Space Chat, your weekly launchpad into the cosmos! Today, we’re diving into the mysteries of Europa — Jupiter’s icy moon that might just harbor alien life beneath its frozen crust. We’ll explore the latest findings from the Europa Clipper mission, break down what makes this moon so tantalizing to astrobiologists, and hear from Dr. Lena Ortiz, a planetary scientist who’s been studying subsurface oceans for over a decade. Plus, we’ll answer listener questions about black holes, space elevators, and whether Mars sunsets really are blue. Buckle up — it’s going to be a stellar ride.
