The Artemis 2 team have broken the record for the farthest distance travelled from Earth, previously set by the Apollo 13 mission in 1970. They surpassed the record by more than 6,000 kilometres, reaching a distance of 406,771 kilometres from Earth. The astronauts have wrapped up their lunar flyby and are now journeying back to Earth, bringing with them rich celestial observations including little-known lunar craters, a solar eclipse and meteor strikes.
