Artemis II's journey so far... in 85 seconds
The four astronauts on Nasa's Artemis II mission are the first humans since 1972 to leave Earth's orbit.
Commander Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen are now on a looping path that will carry them around the far side of the Moon and back again.
Their 10-day journey will ferry them up to 252,799 miles (406,840km) from Earth,
exceeding the previous record
set by Apollo 13 – 248,655 miles – in 1970.
The crew will not be landing on the Moon on this current mission, and will instead use it to prepare for a potential lunar landing by 2028.
