Yes – the above is a real picture from just the last hour!

In just under an hour from now (1 PM Eastern Time), NASA will begin live coverage of the historic lunar flyby of Artemis II – and the farthest humans have ever gone in space (breaking Apollo 13's record).

Make sure to join in as everyone follows and discusses this historic event live in our Artemis II MEGATHREAD – https://www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/1s9qfc7/megathread_artemis_ii_launch_to_the_moon/

  1. How long will it last? About to go to sleep in Aus so I’d like to hopefully catch some of it live

    We’re about to witness humans travel further from the earth than any others in history. Just soak that fact in.

    Can’t wait to see how badly NASA screws this stream up, if the launch is any indication of their competence

    Bro I am *not* emotionally prepared for humans to break the Apollo 13 distance record today, that’s genuinely one of those “stop what you’re doing and watch” moments.

  5. This is so exciting. History is being made as we speak! The crew and RISE are amazing.
