00:00On this Tuesday, the crew of Artemis II spacecraft broke the distance record of the Apollo 13 mission and flew
00:07over the far side of the moon.
00:09The four astronauts, Ray Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen, made history on the night of April 6
00:15by reaching a distance of 406,778 kilometers from Earth aboard the Orion capsule, surpassing the 56-year-old record
00:23held by the Apollo 13 mission.
00:24From that unprecedented distance, they were able to observe with the naked eye the far side of the moon, a
00:31surface that no human being had ever contemplated with their own eyes from space.
00:35In this context, during nearly six hours of flyby, the moon blocked communication with Earth while the astronauts photographed the
00:41craters, rims, and reliefs of the dark side.
00:44Upon re-establishing contact with Earth, the only woman on board, Christian Koch, sent a hopeful message to Earth.

01:40bolster industry. We will inspire.
01:43But ultimately, we will always choose Earth. We will always choose each other.
