Artemis II completa con éxito maniobra clave hacia la Luna

Tras un despegue impecable el miércoles 1 de abril del Centro Espacial Kennedy en Florida a las 18:35 (hora del este de EE. UU.), la misión Artemis II de la NASA ha marcado hoy un segundo día decisivo en su viaje espacial. 

La tripulación, compuesta por los astronautas Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch y Jeremy Hansen, ha iniciado formalmente su viaje hacia el espacio profundo tras completar la maniobra de Inyección Trans-Lunar (TLI).

Durante las primeras 48 horas, el equipo ha demostrado una capacidad de respuesta excepcional, superando con éxito los retos técnicos iniciales, incluyendo una incidencia en el sistema de gestión de residuos de la cápsula Orion. 

Con la nave operando a pleno rendimiento y tras recibir el voto de confianza de los equipos en Houston, la Orion se aleja ahora de la Tierra para un viaje de 10 días que redefinirá la exploración lunar humana.
