CONFIRMED: Orion is now in Earth’s orbit
The Orion spacecraft has successfully entered orbit, traveling at an incredible 17,500 mph (28,000 km/h).
At this speed, it can stay locked around Earth while engineers run critical system checks and prepare for the next phase.
This is a key step in the Artemis II mission — bringing humanity closer to returning to the Moon.
Every second now is about precision, testing, and getting ready for deep space.
Next stop: the Moon.
