Artemis II astronauts exit NASA’S Orion spacecraft after splashing down on Earth

From Global News.

Friday marked the end of NASA’s Artemis II lunar mission, and saw the return of astronauts Jeremy Hanses, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman and Christina Koch, after a successful splashdown off the coast of San Diego, Calif.

Video captured on that historic day shows the moment each of the crew members exited the Orion spacecraft onto a safety raft – vessels that were to be airlifted to medical bays on land.

Their return marks the end of a 10-day mission that saw humans examine the moon up close for the first time since the Apollo flights of the 1960s and 70s.
