La misión Artemis II de la NASA se lanzó el 1 de abril de 2026, marcando el primer viaje lunar tripulado desde 1972. Los cuatro astronautas —el comandante Reid Wiseman, el piloto Victor Glover, la especialista de misión Christina Koch y el especialista de misión Jeremy Hansen— llevan el Omega Speedmaster X-33 de segunda generación durante el vuelo. Este reloj de titanio sirve como equipamiento oficial a bordo de la nave espacial.

La tripulación de Artemis II despegó a las 22:35:12 UTC desde una plataforma de lanzamiento de la NASA, iniciando un viaje alrededor de la Luna. Las imágenes de la NASA muestran a los astronautas Glover y Hansen con el X-33 sobre sus trajes naranjas durante los preparativos. La misión representa un paso clave en el regreso de la NASA a la exploración lunar después de más de cinco décadas.

NASA's Artemis II mission lifted off successfully on April 1, 2026, from Kennedy Space Center in Florida, sending astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen aboard the Orion spacecraft for the first crewed Moon flyby since Apollo 17. Powered by the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, the 10-day test flight will validate critical systems for future lunar landings and Mars missions, looping around the Moon's far side.

NASA transferred 55 speedmaster watches to museum in 1976

NASA provided 55 of its Omega Speedmaster chronographs to the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC, on April 27, 1976. The agency had received a total of 100 such watches from Omega between 1965 and 1968. Of those, 71 saw use during spaceflight missions from 1965 to 1975.

Artemis II detects helium leak but proceeds to safe reentry

NASA's Artemis II mission, the first crewed flight of the Orion spacecraft around the Moon since 1972, has encountered a helium leak in its service module but officials say it poses no threat to the crew's return. The spacecraft, carrying astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen, launched on April 1 and is set for splashdown in the Pacific Ocean on Friday evening. Ground teams adjusted the flight plan to study the leak while maintaining nominal performance.
