猎户座回到地球

At 12:40 p.m. EST, Dec. 11, 2022, the Orion spacecraft for the Artemis I mission splashed down in the Pacific Ocean after a 25.5-day mission to the Moon. Flight controllers in mission control at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston spent about two hours performing tests in open water to gather additional data about the spacecraft. Orion was then recovered by NASA’s Landing and Recovery team, U.S. Navy and Department of Defense partners aboard the USS Portland. Recovery personnel also spent time collecting detailed imagery of the spacecraft before beginning to pull the capsule into the USS Portland’s well deck. The ship will soon begin its trip back to U.S. Naval Base San Diego, where engineers will remove Orion from the ship in preparation for…

Snoopy, the zero-gravity indicator for NASA’s Artemis I flight test, floats in space on Nov. 20, 2022, while attached to his tether in the Orion spacecraft. In this enhanced image, Snoopy stands out in a custom orange spacesuit, while Orion’s interior has been shaded black and white for contrast. The character’s spacesuit is modeled after the suit astronauts will wear during launch and reentry in Orion on future missions to the Moon. NASA has shared an association with Charles M. Schulz and Snoopy since the Apollo missions and the relationship continues under Artemis. Snoopy was selected as the zero-gravity indicator for the flight because of the inspiration and excitement the character has provided for human spaceflight for more than 50 years.

NASA’s uncrewed Orion spacecraft snapped this black and white photo of Earth on Nov. 17, 2022, the second day of the 25.5-day Artemis I mission. The optical navigation camera is used to capture imagery of the Earth and the Moon at different phases and distances, which help establish its effectiveness as a way of determining its position in space for future missions under differing lighting conditions.

On Nov. 20, the fifth day of the 25.5-day Artemis I mission, a camera mounted on the tip of one of Orion’s solar array wings captured this footage of the spacecraft and the Moon as it continued to grow nearer to our lunar neighbor. The spacecraft entered the lunar sphere of influence at 2:09 p.m. EST, making the Moon, instead of Earth, the main gravitational force acting on the spacecraft. Orion completed its first flyby on the morning of Nov. 21, 2022. Follow Orion’s journey by visiting the Artemis I blog.

T-38 planes are a fixture of astronaut training, assisting pilots and mission specialists to think quickly in changing situations. Here, our T-38s fly in formation above the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket on Launch Pad 39B. The SLS and Orion spacecraft for the Artemis I mission will launch no earlier than Aug. 29, 2022. Astronaut Andrew Morgan posted this and two other photos on Twitter on Aug. 25, 2022, saying “This week we flew over @NASAArtemis, thanking the @nasa centers across the country that put this Moon rocket on @NASAKennedy’s pad and celebrating the upcoming test flight!” Image credit: NASA/Josh Valcarcel T-38飞机是宇航员训练的一个固定项目，协助飞行员和任务专家在不断变化的情况下快速思考。在这里，我们的T-38飞机在39B发射台上的太空发射系统（SLS）火箭上方编队飞行。用于阿尔忒弥斯一号任务的SLS和猎户座飞船将不早于2022年8月29日发射。 宇航员安德鲁·摩根于2022年8月25日在推特上发布了这张照片和另外两张照片，称“本周我们飞越了@NASAArtemis，感谢全国各地的@nasa 中心将这枚月球火箭放在@NASAKennedy 的平台上，并庆祝即将进行的试飞！” 影像来源：NASA/Josh Valcarcel

NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket with the Orion spacecraft aboard is seen atop the mobile launcher as it is rolled up the ramp at Launch Pad 39B, Wednesday, Aug. 17, 2022, at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA’s Artemis I mission is the first integrated test of the agency’s deep space exploration systems: the Orion spacecraft, SLS rocket, and supporting ground systems. Launch of the uncrewed flight test is targeted for Aug. 29 at the earliest. See this and even more photos on Flickr.

NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket with the Orion spacecraft aboard is seen at sunrise atop a mobile launcher at Launch Complex 39B, Monday, April 4, 2022. From April 1-4, the Artemis I launch team is conducting the wet dress rehearsal test at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Ahead of the Artemis I flight test, the wet dress rehearsal will run the launch team through operations to load propellant, conduct a full launch countdown, demonstrate the ability to recycle the countdown clock, and drain the tanks to practice timelines and procedures for launch.

Snoopy, the Zero G Indicator for the Artemis I mission, was delivered to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on Dec. 2, 2021, before being loaded into the Orion spacecraft ahead of launch early next year. Zero gravity indicators are small items carried aboard spacecraft that provide a visual indicator when a spacecraft has reached the weightlessness of microgravity. Without astronauts aboard Orion, Snoopy will help share the journey with the world as he rides along in the cabin. This photo shows Snoopy looking at his ride to space which is currently stacked atop the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket inside the Vehicle Assembly Building. 史努比是阿尔忒弥斯一号任务的零重力指示器，于2021年12月2日送往NASA肯尼迪航天中心，然后在明年初发射之前被装载到猎户座飞船上。零重力指示器是航天器上携带的小物品，当航天器达到微重力的失重状态时，可以提供视觉指示。猎户座上没有宇航员，史努比将在机舱内与世界分享旅程。这张照片显示史努比看着他的太空坐骑，该坐骑目前堆放在车辆装配大楼内的太空发射系统（SLS）火箭顶部。 NASA is collaborating under an agreement with Peanuts to educate and share information about Snoopy’s journey and the mission, inspiring generations…
