Artemis 2 har skjutits upp framgångsrikt från Kennedy Space Center

Svenska

Nasas Artemis 2 Orion-kapsel har skjutits upp framgångsrikt från Kennedy Space Center med fyra astronauter ombord, på väg mot månen på en 400 000 kilometer lång resa. Raketen uppnådde överljudsfart och färdas nu i 27 000 km/h. Det automatiserade uppskjutningskontrollsystemet har tagit över.

Nasas Artemis 2-uppdrag lyfte framgångsrikt från Kennedy Space Center, vilket även täcktes i DER SPIEGELs liveblogg. Åskådare följde uppskjutningen medan astronauterna gick ombord på Orion-kapseln en efter en. Bränslepåfyllningen inleddes klockan 14:35 under gynnsamma väderförhållanden. Raketen accelererade snabbt, bröt ljudvallen, flög i en suborbital bana och nådde 27 000 km/h mot månen. Tekniker hade kontrollerat raketens självförstörelsesystem och löst smärre problem, såsom ett felaktigt batteri. Säkerhetsfunktionerna inkluderar ett nödutrymningssystem med kabelslädar, ett avbrottssystem för Orion-kapseln samt redundanta system för kontroll, livsuppehållande funktioner och motorer. Den 13 ton tunga servicemodulen kommer från Tyskland, liksom strålningsmätningen som utförs av ett tyskt företag. USA:s transportminister Pete Buttigieg förutspådde seger i kapplöpningen till månen och Mars. Amerikanska medborgare stöder starkt Nasas rymdprogram.

Four astronauts are heading to the Moon for the first time in over 50 years. The crew launched at 18:35 local time from Cape Canaveral, Florida, aboard the Orion capsule atop the Space Launch System. The mission builds on Artemis 1 and sets milestones for women and non-white astronauts.

NASA releases initial Artemis II mission assessments

NASA has completed initial evaluations of the Artemis II mission systems following the crew's safe return from a lunar flyby earlier this month. The Orion spacecraft and SLS rocket performed as expected, setting a new record for the farthest distance traveled from Earth. Minor issues arose with the toilet system, but the crew resolved them successfully.

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.
