Canada's Jeremy Hansen and Artemis II Astronauts Travel to the Moon

The Artemis II test flight is a big step for NASA's moon base plans.

Astronaut Jeremy Hansen is the first Canadian to go to the Moon. He and three other astronauts are on the Artemis II crew.

The Canadian Space Agency said the Orion capsule's systems are working well after 25 hours in Earth's orbit.

The Orion capsule left Earth's orbit and is heading to the moon, which is about 400,000 kilometers away.

NASA's administrator said America is sending astronauts to the moon again. This time, they will go farther than before.

The Artemis II crew is on their way to the moon after a successful engine burn.

This is the first time a space crew has done this since Apollo 17 in 1972. NASA said the burn was perfect.

A NASA official said the crew is healthy and the spacecraft is working well.

Jeremy Hansen spoke to NASA from the Orion capsule.

Hansen said humanity has shown what it can do, and their hopes for the future are carrying them on this journey.

The astronauts were looking out the windows at the great view.

NASA tested the capsule's life-support systems before letting them go to the moon.

The Artemis II test flight is the start of NASA's plans for a moon base.

Astronaut Roberta Bondar described liftoff as being inside a Roman candle.

Commander Reid Wiseman was testing cameras and saw the Earth as a small globe.

Wiseman said taking pictures of the Earth from far away is hard.

NASA will release pictures taken by the crew later in the mission.

The astronauts will fly past the moon and then return home without landing.

They will travel farther from Earth than anyone has before.

Canadian reporters will talk to Jeremy Hansen during a live space-to-Earth connection.

The next big event will be the lunar flyby on Monday.
