9. Bye bye, fly-by
The Artemis II crew have completed their lunar fly-by, and the first stunning pictures are received.
It鈥檚 been a busy 24 hours for the Artemis II crew. They have completed a lunar fly-by, surpassed the furthest distance humans have ever travelled from planet Earth, gone through a communications black out period, and witnessed a lunar eclipse.
Host space scientist Maggie Aderin is joined by space journalist Kristin Fisher who, like many of us, stayed up to watch the fly-by. And 麻豆社 News science editor Rebecca Morelle calls in from Houston to give us the latest from mission control. The first pictures back were published by Nasa just as this episode began recording.
And former 麻豆社 space correspondent Jonathan Amos joins the 鈥13 minutes community鈥, giving his perspective on the historic mission and the events of the last 24 hrs.
Season 4 theme music by Hans Zimmer and Christian Lundberg and produced by Russell Emanuel, for Bleeding Fingers Music.
