OUTER SPACE, N.Y. — The four astronauts aboard the Artemis II capsule are set to splash down in the Pacific Ocean on Friday, after traveling further into space than any other humans have gone.
The capsule is expected to splash down just after 8 p.m. Eastern Time off the coast of San Diego. That will mark the end to the 10-day mission that included a moon flyby. It’s humanity’s first flight to the moon since the 1972 Apollo mission.
So, what will happen to the capsule once it reaches Earth’s atmosphere, and how will the weather in the Pacific impact splashdown? First Alert Meteorologist Nate Morris explains in the video in this story.
As News10NBC has covered, the Rochester company L3 Harris has contributed more than 100 mission-critical pieces from launch to landing. In addition, the windows on the capsule were polished by a company in Chili. What’s more, two of the Artemis II astronauts wore aviation sunglasses from a Rochester company leading up to the launch while at the Kennedy Space Center.
