For the first time in over 50 years, humans are going back to the Moon. This time, Europe is part of that journey.
Artemis II is the first crewed mission of NASA's Artemis programme and will bring four astronauts on a 10-day journey around the Moon and safely back to Earth. What carries them on this voyage is the Orion spacecraft, powered by our European Service Module (ESM).
The ESM is built by 20 companies across Europe, led by prime contractor Airbus. The module will provide all the air and water needed by the crew throughout their journey, and power and propel their spacecraft through deep space and back home.
