Artemis II: Chris Hadfield explains the risks facing the crew as they return to Earth

From Global News.

In an interview with Global News, retired Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield said the Artemis II mission marks a major milestone for Canada in space exploration.

He warned the return to Earth is high-risk, with the crew facing extreme heat and pressure during re-entry.

"Nobody has ever left Earth orbit except Americans… the very first country after the United States to have someone leave Earth is Canada."

He added the re-entry is “extremely serious,” as the world watches the high-stakes splashdown later on Friday.
