At the halfway point in NASA's Artemis 1 mission, the unpiloted Orion moonship is chalking up a near-flawless flight beaming back spectacular images of Earth disappearing from view as it was eclipsed by the moon.
is chalking up a near-flawless flight, mission managers said Monday, beaming back spectacular images of Earth disappearing from view as it was eclipsed by the moon.
Only one"anomaly team" is still on the job as engineers troubleshoot a minor glitch with a power distribution system component. But Sarafin said the issue is not a serious problem"because we have appropriate levels of redundancy. ... We just don't quite understand what the hardware is telling us." "I was in the control center for a majority of those images, the ones including the Earth and the moon, and it's really hard to articulate what the feeling is," said Flight Director Rick LaBrode."It's just amazing to be here and see that."
