AI Summary:
Apollo 13's astronauts missed out on a Moon landing when one of their oxygen tanks ruptured on the way there in 1970. The mission, humanity’s first trip to the Moon since 1972, is chasing Apollo 13’s record for the farthest distance from Earth. A total solar eclipse also awaits them as the Moon blocks the Sun. Mission Control pivoted to a free-return lunar trajectory to get them home as quickly as possible. Astronauts will split into pairs and take turns capturing lunar views out their windows. At closest approach, they will come within 6,550 kilometres of the Moon. Once Artemis II departs the lunar neighbourhood, it will take four days to return home.
