00:08Join us as we are witnessing at this moment the crew members of Artemis II, NASA's groundbreaking
00:15mission that are coming out of the capsule at this moment after the return to Earth,
00:21after also splashing down in the coastline of San Diego in the United States, in the Pacific
00:26coast as well. The four astronauts, Ray Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Cush and Jeremy Hansen,
00:35they are coming at this moment one by one out of the capsule at this moment. All of them, the
00:43four of
00:44them, represent a new era of diversity, a new era of international collaboration in space exploration.
00:51Let's record that after landing in the Pacific Ocean, a recovery crew, which are they at this
00:58moment are deployed on the scene. The recovery crew from the USS John P. Murtha stands ready
01:09to retrieve the Artemis crew using boats that will pull up to an inflatable Porsche attached
01:16to Orion's hatch. Crew members will be transferred afterwards to the Navy ship by helicopter as well.
01:25As the rescue operations unfold, they have been moved into a live boat at this precise moment in this
01:37steadfast rescue operation. And after this successful splashing, after 10 days orbiting the
01:46moon, one of the most ambitious milestones in its space program in decades, the launching of Artemis 2
01:54mission, marking the return of crewed flights beyond Earth's orbit. The project led by NASA aims to lay the
02:03foundations for a sustained human presence on the moon and eventually open the door as well to missions
02:12Mars. The mission driven by NASA mirrors the historic Apollo 8 flight, but with modern technology and even more ambitious
02:24goals aboard the new space launch system rocket. Four astronauts, the four that we are witnessing at this moment that
02:32are coming out of the capsule, are orbiting the moon without landing it. For the first time in over half
02:40a century, a
02:41human crew travel farther from Earth than ever before. In scientific and technological terms, this mission represents one of humanity's
02:53greatest advancements in decades. Artemis 2 crew, let's recall the splashdown in Pacific Ocean earlier today and ending a record
03:04-breaking moon flyby. The four astronauts
03:08launched on Earth on Earth off the coast of California, concluding historic 10-day mission. Also, the Artemis 2 and
03:17the four astronauts aboard the Orion space capsule splashed down, as we inform, by 5pm. This is what is happening
03:27at this moment. At this moment, the coming out of the four crew members that were part of this milestone,
03:36this important moment for humanity. Commander Red Wiseman, we're speaking about Commander Red Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist
03:49Christina Kush of NASA, and the Canadian Space Agency's Jeremy Hansen, that have just become the first humans to travel
03:58to the moon and return to Earth safely since the crew of Apollo 17 in December of
04:05of 1970. They joined an exclusive club of just 24 other humans who have traveled to the moon and returned
04:16safely to Earth. As the Orion capsule descended below 17,000 miles from the planet's surface,
04:25wise man gave a description of the Earth as it came into view. He said, there's a great blue hue
04:33to it. It's beautiful. Those were his words. At this moment, the four crew members are at this moment into
04:41the lifeboat. They are going to be safely taken to firm land. They are going to be transported as well
04:49in helicopter. This is information, last minute information.
04:54As the news unfolds. As the news unfolds, this milestone unfolds. And if you're joining us in this broadcast at
05:02this very moment, we are witnessing the rescue mission, the rescue operations to take safely the four crew members of
05:13Artemis II, NASA's groundbreaking mission, out of the capsule after the successful mission
05:22mission to orbit the moon. And we are seeing the mission to orbit the moon in just 10 days and
05:26to safely come back to Earth. That's something that happens. There's a splash that happened just one hour, a little
05:33bit over one hour ago. And let's recall that this took place as we were informing after 10 days in
05:42space and becoming the first crew mission to circle the moon in more than half a century.
05:49We are seeing as well. We are seeing as well the recovery crew from the USS John P. Murtha that
05:55are at this moment ready to retrieve the Artemis crew using boats that will pull up to an inflatable porch
06:03attached to Orion's hatch. That's what we are witnessing precisely in this very moment.
06:10It is expected that crew members. It is expected that crew members be transferred to the Navy ship by helicopter.
06:17And as this rescue operation unfolds, we keep bringing you the main highlights of this mission that has been one
06:26of the most ambitious milestones in its space program in decades.
06:32The launching of the launching of the Artemis 2 mission that is marking as well the return of crew flights
06:39beyond Earth's orbit. And the project that is led by NASA, as we have been informing, aims to lay the
06:47foundations to pave the way for a more sustained human presence on the moon.
06:53The mission that has gotten so much international repercussion and international attention represents and mirrors the historic Apollo 17 flight,
07:05but with a modern technology and even more ambitious goals aboard the new space launch system rocket for astronauts, orbited
07:15the moon without landing it.
07:17And for the first time and for the first time in over half a century, a human crew travel farther
07:22from Earth than ever before in scientific and also in technological terms, this represents one of humanity's greatest advancements in
07:34decades.
07:34We are witnessing history at this moment. Artemis 2, let's recall, splashed down in the Pacific Ocean earlier today, ending
07:47this record-breaking moon flyby.
07:50The four astronauts touched down on Earth off the coast of California and that is how it concluded successfully a
07:59historic 10-day mission.
08:01The Artemis 2 and the four astronauts aboard the Orion space capsule has splashed down successfully on the Pacific Ocean
08:10off the coast of San Diego in California.
08:14This is last-minute information. We were witnessing at this moment the four crew members of Artemis 2 NASA's groundbreaking
08:21mission that came out of the capsule successfully after this historic 10-day mission.
08:28The travel that caught so much international attention and keeps also getting so much international attention because of the milestone
08:37that it represents, not just for humanity, not just for the scientific community, but also in a context of so
08:43much uncertainty worldwide.
08:45This brings like a breath of fresh air for the humanity at this moment. This is all for the moment.
