Mark, I think one of the most interesting things right now is the
four of us have looked at this thing our entire lives,
and the way we are responding to what we are seeing out the window is it's
just like we're a bunch of little kids up here, just we cannot get enough of this.
It's amazing.
Thank you for the privilege.
Thank you
for sharing that special perspective you have with all of this back
here.
This is Artemis mission Control in Houston, Texas.
We recently received confirmation that the Orion spacecraft
and its crew have officially entered the lunar sphere of influence.
That milestone, taking place at a mission elapsed time of four days, six hours,
two minutes, and 54 seconds into the Artemis two mission.
By reaching this
milestone, it means that the gravitational forces of the moon
are now greater on the Orion spacecraft than that of Earth.
Two one.
Hello Artemis II
This is Apollo astronaut Jim Lovell.
Welcome to my old neighborhood.
When Frank Borman, Bill Andrews and I are over the moon on Apollo eight,
we got humanity's first up close look at the moon
and got a view of the home planet that inspired.
And united people around the world. I’m proud to pass that torch
as you swing around the moon and lay the groundwork
for missions to Mars for the benefit of all.
It's a historic day, and I know how busy you will be,
but don't forget to enjoy the view.
So Reid and Victor.
Christina and Jeremy and all the great teams supporting you.
Good luck.
Godspeed.
From all of us here on the good Earth
Good morning.
Houston.
Integrity on 100.
That was an awesome message from Jim Lovell.
And very cool to hear him.
Welcome to the neighborhood.
It's going to be a great day.
Thank you.
Good morning.
Houston.
From Inside Integrity 215,049 miles away from Earth
and 12,712 miles from the moon.
Let's actually savor the calm delay that we have.
We're ready for the morning.
Beautiful.
We are savoring it down here.
Good morning, integrity and good morning, moon.
Our room is buzzing with moon joy today, and I imagine yours is two.
We are ready to go.
We are looking forward to working with and for the science team.
And we are just, excited to be, so close to finally
accomplishing what we've been training for for so many years.
And also we want to say, thank you for that really special message
from Jim Level.
We have a pretty neat emblem up here.
We have a patch that was flown on the Apollo
eight mission, and that patch is here on the Artemis two mission as well.
And that was sent to us by the local family by Jim Lovell, son.
And so that was a really special way to start the day.
And he said to, welcome us to the neighborhood.
And it's great to be in this neighborhood.
And we look forward to sharing this neighborhood with you all.
We can't wait.
We see the patch.
And if you were to fall off and, when this showed up in our office
from his family, we were completely honored.
And the Earthrise, which this crew, is responsible
for taking that photo has been instrumental both
to our crew as our ethos of values, but also just personally to myself.
I had the photo up in my room as a kid, and it was part of what inspired me
to keep working hard to achieve things I dreamed about.
Also, we took a deep dive into the cockpit recordings around the time
that picture was taken, and it turns out there was a lot of hubbub.
Kind of, I wouldn't say fighting over cameras, but
definitely, everyone wanted to capture the shot.
So we're happy to carry on that legacy because we often are all glued to windows
and looking for cameras to.
And I'll just close.
I know it looks like a piece of paper
in the camera there, but that is actually the original Apollo
eight patch printed on silk that they had done before they launched,
and they flew that with them on their journey around the moon.
And then the family handed it over to us, as I said.
And it's just a real honor to have that aboard with us.
Let's go have a great day.
Right now, the Artemis two crew and Mission
Control are preparing to support today's lunar flyby.
The first time we've sent humans around the moon in over 50 years.
Integrity.
You can use the O's and your Http
camera for the milestone words at the Apollo 13 record distance.
You'll notice that we pause every time we hear communications to and from the crew.
They are the stars for today.
This afternoon, the crew will
have their closest approach of the moon and will surpass the record
that record just mentioned of the furthest humans have ever flown.
Set by the Apollo 13 astronauts in 1970.
As you can see, the crew members have dimmed
the cabin lights inside Orion.
Dimming the lights also helps prevent reflections
from inside Orion onto the windows.
Ahead of this lunar flyby.
Let's dive in and explain what you can expect over the next several hours.
The crew has about six hours allotted to make observations about the moon.
Throughout the flyby, their activities have been precisely time lined.
There are five blocks of time during which the crew
will be observing the moon from Orion's windows.
At any time, two members will be at the windows working in a pair.
One crew member
will be taking photos from window two with a blue shroud over the window.
This can help prevent that glare or reflection from inside Orion.
They have an 882 400 millimeter zoom lens to use.
The other astronaut will be in window three using their portable computing
device.
You'll hear that referred to as a PCD, to make annotations.
Both of these crew members will make audio recordings of what they are seeing
and know where headsets connected to those CDs.
Those audio recordings will be sent to the science team at a later date.
We will not hear them live.
The two crew members at the windows will swap roles and positions halfway
through their timeline to block the other two crew members
who won't be at the windows at that
time will be serving in the background as support.
One will be conducting the science set, reps or situation reports.
This is what we will hear live from the crew.
They'll be calling down a few times each hour to discuss what they are observing.
Those situation reports include how the crew is positioned,
any missed targets or anything unexpected they saw.
Lunar target descriptions, any hardware issues,
and of course, their emotions and reactions as they fly by the moon.
Good morning crew.
This is science.
We couldn't be more excited for a full day of lunar
and planetary observations today, the first one in over 54 years.
How do you hear me?
We hear you loud and clear at be.
You just got to know your orders away from the moon right now.
So let's go.
Message received.
I will keep it tight here.
I did just want to start with a thank you on behalf of the lunar science team
and the entire lunar and planetary science
community, of which you are absolutely a part for what
you've already done in this mission
and what you're going to do today to inspire the next generation of scientists.
I have to say, moon Joy is the new term that's already become our team's new
motto. So thanks for that.
A reminder also that your observations so far
indicate it will likely take some time for your eyes to adjust.
We especially heard that around your Terminator observations
and your color observations.
So reminder to, know that your AI adaptation is going to kind of come
in throughout your shift and let us know when you start to see that nuance.
Last reminder is, around Earth set and Earthrise.
When you're viewing us back here at home,
you'll be looking directly at Asia, Africa and Oceana.
So I'm sure people watching from those places here on earth
will want to give you all a wave as you take their picture.
And we're live in Mission Control in Houston,
but we are not the only room monitoring today's flyby.
As you heard young mentioned
in this same building and just down the hall,
a multidisciplinary lunar science team supports the Artemis
two crew in real time, including experts in lunar geology, impact
cratering, volcanism, polar science, imaging, and visualization.
There are two integrated facilities and the first is the Sur,
which is what you have right here.
That's the science evaluation room.
They are embedded
within mission control to provide science input during live operations.
Like what we see today.
Additionally, and not pictured, we have this Science Mission Operations
room, a back room
that processes data, evaluates imagery, and supports rapid analysis.
Integrity crew.
We have reads family in the viewing gallery.
You're welcome to say hello.
Well, whether you're
being serious or you're kidding around, that is awesome to hear.
Thanks, Jenny, and hello to Leah.
Katie, I don't know who else is there,
but it's great to know that you're in Mission Control right now.
Following along, we are having a blast up here
in the view of the moon is absolutely amazing.
I'm seeing a lot of hearts come out of the viewing gallery and even more smiles.
Thanks.
Copy.
Heart.
Copy.
Bracelet.
Integrity.
Crew.
On April 15th, 1970,
during the Apollo 13 message mission, three explorers set the record
for the farthest distance humans have ever traveled from our home planet
at that time, over 55 years ago,
level, Swigert and Haise flew
248,655 statute miles away from Earth.
Today, for all
humanity, you're pushing beyond that frontier integrity.
Over to you.
Yeah.
From, cabin of integrity here as we surpass the first furthest distance
humans have ever traveled from planet Earth.
We do so in honoring the extraordinary efforts
and feats of our predecessors in human space exploration.
We will continue our journey even further into space before Mother
Earth succeeds in pulling us back to everything that we hold dear.
But we most importantly choose this moment to challenge
this generation and in the next, to make sure
this record is not long lived.
And we have a couple more things.
We'd like to take this moment for,
our science team, helped us out with a couple
of relatively fresh craters on the moon that have not been previously named.
And our crew would like to propose, a couple
of potential names for those items or those areas.
And we spent a bit of time, this morning looking out the window,
and were able to see them now, both with our naked eye and through the long lens.
And so we feel this is a good time to, send this down.
And a special shout out to Kelsey for helping us, with this.
The first one, we'd like to suggest is a named crater
in honor of our great spacecraft integrity.
And so if you were to look at Orientale
on the far side and then draw a line straight up to,
on the far side, relatively in the middle is an unnamed crater.
And we would like to suggest it be called integrity in the future.
Our second
and the second one, and especially meaningful for this crew,
is a number of years ago we started this journey
and our close knit astronaut family, and we lost a loved one.
And there's a there's a feature in a really neat place on the moon,
and it is on the near side, far side boundary
in fact, it's just on the near side of that boundary.
And so at certain times
of the, moon's transit around Earth,
you can we will be able to see this from Earth.
And so we lost a loved one.
Her name was Carol.
They're supposed to read the mother
of Katie and Ellie.
And if you want to find this one, you look at Glushko,
and it's just to the northwest of that
at the same latitude is, and it's a it's a bright spot on the moon.
And we would like to call it Carol.
And you spell that ka rr.
Oh, yeah.
Well.
Integrity and Carol creator.
Loud and clear.
Thank you.
There was a moment of silence here in Mission Control.
Houston.
And now the team and the Artemis two crew
are ready to begin their lunar flyby.
We just realized that we have heard
that when no one and moon one, no. Two.
And we were at.
Sorry, Earth, I wouldn't go for an moon at window three.
And it gives you the best idea of.
Yeah, we have had. Yeah.
The moon is about 3 to 4 times the size of the Earth,
and it is almost full, and the earth is just a small crescent out there.
It's magnificent.
I got a picture of it, with the wide lens.
That's for majestic view out here.
Amaze amaze amaze.
Thank you.
Read.
Now, this is a view from their lunar targeting package at this time,
helping them determine what they're seeing on the moon as well as on the left.
Keep up with what their next target will be.
As you can see, we have got a long list and an exciting day ahead of us.
Houston, another observation hole.
Moon.
When you look at the moon, something I've never seen in photographs
before, but it's very apparent all the really bright new craters.
Some of them are super tiny.
Most of them are pretty small.
There's a couple that really stand out, obviously,
and what it really looks like is like a lampshade
with tiny pinprick holes and the light shining through.
They are so bright compared to the rest of the moon.
School after
it just being in a 400 mil for the last half hour.
Looking up close, I got pictures of everything
I was just describing on the Terminator.
It really is a fascinating Terminator.
And and Orientale just looks so.
It looks so dynamic right now.
It's very three dimensional at the docking as compared to what I was just looking
at through the 400 mil.
We love it.
We are getting a sneak preview from one of our saw cameras
that what you're looking at? And we see some of what you're describing.
We cannot wait to see your photos.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Jenny, I wish you had,
some longer lenses on their solar array so you could see the hole there, but,
man, it is, or the up close, but not the whole movie.
But it is just fascinating. And it's so cool,
All right.
MPO and Inco take notes.
We want to zoom lens on those stars next time.
Thanks.
Read.
Affirmative.
At one point,
towards the end of the images, of my time in window three,
I just had an overwhelming sense of being moved by looking at the moon.
It lasted just a second or two, and I actually
couldn't even make it happen again.
But, something just threw me in
suddenly to the lunar landscape, and it became real.
And the truth is, the moon really is,
its own unit body in the universe.
It's not just a poster in the sky that goes by, it is a real place.
And it when we have that perspective and we compare it to
our home of the earth, it just reminds us how much we have in common.
Everything we need, the earth provides and that in and of itself is
somewhat of a miracle.
Science.
Integrity.
First I wanted to start off, with connecting with what
Christina said, that, it was very moving to look out the window.
I had the unfortunate,
sequence to start looking out the window and then moved to the long lens,
and it was hard to speak, looking through the zoom,
because I went straight where Christina went.
And I was walking around down there on the surface, climbing and operating
on that amazing terrain.
I also want to underscore something that she said
as we continue to explore, when we actually do go down there
to the surface, I know for safety reasons that we would never send someone alone.
But I just want to really emphasize how important the discussion time was.
When we started to talk,
we not only got better science discussion, we got better human connection.
And so doing this as a pair, we just learn and grow together
and that's just super important.
So thank you for adding that to this plan.
Integrity Houston
you are six minutes from your 40 minutes
lunar flyby loss
from all of us.
It's a privilege to witness you carrying the fire past our farthest reach.
Thank you.
Godspeed.
Thank you for that journey.
And, thank you to all of you
for allowing us the immense privilege to be on this journey together.
It's quite amazing.
And as we,
go on this journey to thinking about the NASA mission
to explore the unknown in air and space,
to innovate for the benefit of humanity, and to inspire the world
through discovery.
And as you've gone along
on this journey with us, hopefully we're doing just those things.
And as we get close to the nearest point to the moon and farthest point from Earth,
as we continue to unlock
the mysteries of the cosmos, I would like to
remind you of one of the most important mysteries there on earth.
And that's love.
Christ said in response to what was the greatest command
that it was to love God with all that you are and.
He also, being a great teacher, said, the sun can is equal to it,
and that is to love your neighbor as yourself.
And so
as we prepare to go out of radio communication,
we're still to feel your love from earth.
And to all of you down there on earth
and around earth.
We love you from the moon.
Houston copies.
We'll see you on the other side.
We are now less than three minutes away
from loss of signal with the Orion astronauts.
The Artemis two crew will be out of signal
for about 40 minutes, as they are on the other side of the moon,
continuing their work photographing the lunar surface.
And they will reemerge.
And we will also get this view on the other
side.
30s now, until we expect loss of signal.
And we have confirmation of loss of signal of the Orion spacecraft
as it flies behind the moon, we expect to regain communications
with them for in another approximately 40 minutes.
This was expected as their spacecraft is now
out of direct line of sight with Earth and behind the moon.
And this is a poignant moment, as it's the first time in over 50 years
that we have humans completely unreachable by anyone else on Earth,
no matter how distant or secluded, we could reach anyone living on Earth.
But while the crew flies behind the moon, it's simply impossible
to make contact with them.
And we
just heard confirmation here in Mission Control Houston, that we have reached
the closest point of our destination to the moon at met
five days, 25 minutes, and 34 seconds,
and we anticipate the spacecraft's altitude is approximately 4067.
Statute miles above the moon.
We're continuing to track
what the crew is doing while around the other side of the moon.
They are continuing to take pictures of the Earth, or, sorry, of the moon.
The Earth now out of sight.
What they are in right now is a Crew Choice event.
The science team has encouraged them to find interesting features
on the surface, to take photos of those and describe why they were interesting.
Something else that they'll be looking toward next.
Just momentarily, will be impact flashes.
They've got a few minutes allotted to look at the darkest portions of the moon.
They're interested in short lived flashes on the lunar surface
because these would be caused by impact bombardment.
After their impact flash targeting,
the team is interested in if the crew can see lofted lunar dust,
this would only be visible just before Earthrise.
Now, 20 minutes until we expect to regain communications
with integrity and the astronauts for Artemis two,
we are getting our first views from Orion.
After the loss of signal, Orion has come back around the other side of the moon,
and that little crescent that you see is Earth over
252,000 miles away.
With this transit complete, lunar flyby continues.
But Orion has also technically begun its journey
home.
This view
from inside the Orion spacecraft, all four astronauts now
back on the other side of the moon and in contact with us on Earth.
Their tasks for lunar flyby did not stop, as
they went behind the moon and out of contact with us.
We anticipate during that time they were attempting to image some impact
flashes, short lived flashes on the lunar surface, which would be caused
by impact bombardment and potentially even a lofted lunar dust.
Right now, of course, they
are getting pictures of Earthrise.
Then integrity comm check.
Integrity.
We have you loud and clear.
How many?
Houston, we have you the same.
And it is so great to hear from Earth again to Asia, Africa and Oceana.
We are looking back at you.
We hear you can look up and see the moon right now.
We see you two will be burned this burn towards the moon.
I said that we do not leave Earth, but we do said.
And that is true.
We will explore, we will build, we will build.
Ships will visit again.
We will construct science outposts.
We will drive rovers.
We will do radio astronomy.
We will found companies.
We will bolster industry, we will inspire.
But ultimately we will always choose Earth.
We will always choose each other.
Integrity from
Earth are a single system, fragile and interconnected.
We copy.
Those of us that can are looking back.
Integrity.
Houston in Mission Control, all of your flight controllers
and your flight director have flipped their Artemis two patches around.
We are Earth bound and ready to bring you home.
A very special moment just now in Mission Control,
ahead of the crew's flight to Kennedy Space Center and during one of their last
Sims or simulations here, they visited the mission control team
in Artemus Mission Control in Houston and brought us each a patch.
Everyone in the flight control room has had these on.
There, their signifiers at their console.
On one side of the patch that you've probably seen is the moon,
with the Earth behind it.
Now that we are
behind, we passed behind the moon and we are returning home.
The flight control team has instructed everyone in the room to switch their
patch around so that the Earth is closer and the moon is behind us.
We are really looking forward to seeing the Artemis two crew and the Capcom.
Jenny Gibbons did call that update up to the crew that the flight control
team here has turned their patches around, as was instructed by the crew
during that last SIM, and we are counting down the days until they get home.
They are now five days, one hour and three minutes.
Mission elapsed time into the Artemis two mission, the Artemis astronauts
are about to experience a solar eclipse from their capsule,
and this is a solar eclipse that no one else on Earth will experience.
This eclipse is about 54 minutes into the astronauts.
It will look a lot like a total solar eclipse on Earth,
except the moon is going to be huge compared to the sun.
Unlike when you watch one on Earth, and the moon and the sun appear
about the same size in the sky.
You're getting a live look from Orion
as the crew observes a solar eclipse from the moon.
Science.
Integrity in the blind.
This is,
continues to be on the on the
the sun, has gone behind the moon
and the corona is still visible
and it's bright and it creates a halo almost around the entire moon.
But when you get to the other side, the earthshine is already showing.
I mean, almost the seconds after,
the sun
set behind the moon, you could see earthshine.
The earth is so bright out there, and the moon is just hanging in front of us.
This,
black orb out in front of us, in front of now.
Not the blackness, but the gray that, blends interest into the blackness.
We can see star in the planets, behind it. And,
Christina is in window one or window two with the long lens,
and Jeremy is describing it.
In window three.
And, it is quite an impressive sight.
You can still see, the horizon, where the brighter where the sun set,
on that side of the moon, it is bright
and, earthshine is is very distinct.
And it creates quite an impressive
visual, illusion.
Wow. It's amazing.
Let's see.
Not a huge change in here.
Just, update the the camera settings for earthshine.
Are it challenging?
This was challenging to capture,
what we're seeing, we're just not picking up on the cameras.
And after all of the amazing sights,
that we we saw earlier, this is.
We just went sci fi.
This has,
it just looks unreal.
You can see the surface of the moon between,
I guess the earthshine, I guess earthshine
you can actually see a majority of,
It is, it is the strangest looking thing,
that you can see so much on the surface.
Integrity, science.
We were loving your science at rest in the blind.
And it should come as no surprise that we have a number of follow up questions.
First, you mentioned read observing meteors.
Can you speak to that?
Were you referring to comets or impact flashes or something else?
Yeah, there was a little bit of giddiness.
We have seen three and back flashes so far.
I saw two and Jeremy and seen one.
Undoubtedly little out of Jeremy saw two.
So that's four total undoubtedly quick impact flashes.
They it was not subtle.
It off of particular went from the thrusters or
the purge tanks.
It was definitely a backlash from moon and Jeremy just saw another one.
Go ahead with your next question.
Amazing news.
I literally just looked over at the sir,
and they were jumping up and down, literally.
If you could describe where on the moon you saw them, please.
So they've all been, either on or a bit south of the equator
and on the Earth's side of the moon.
Snap. I.
All right, so Jeremy is seeing them
kind of bonded south of the equator to spread across the moon.
And mine were both south of the equator and just a little bit left
of center of the moon.
Incredible news.
Read and reminder.
We have citizen scientists here on Earth looking for impact flashes.
So hearing you saw them on the near side means that people saw them too.
One of the other things I wanted to describe,
which was surprising to me, but, the entire moon is lit up.
It's though it's glowing behind the entire moon.
I thought it would look, you know,
dark against the black sky or deep space, but,
the sun is lighting up the entire length of the moon.
You can see the entire perimeter of it.
And even now, with the sun far behind the moon,
you can see you still make a little bit of typography
around the entire limb, just bumps as you go around it.
And there is about the glow around the moon.
Once your eyes adjust is
easily ten widths or diameters of the sun,
around the entire moon.
Science and Houston integrity.
I know this observation won't be of any scientific value,
but, I'm really glad we launched on April 1st
because, humans probably have not,
evolved to see what we're seeing
is truly, hard to describe.
It is amazing.
I'm not sure if we talk much about the star field,
but we've got lots of stars.
You've had the nice glow around the moon, but, you know, right off the,
or upside down now, but from upside down for o'clock, right off
the edge of the moon.
Looks like a planet that's like a planets.
There's something a moon down there to the left, and something right off the,
limb of the moon to the right.
And then something orange.
It looks orange.
To the right of that.
About half the moon diameter.
So, but anyway, there are definitely stars.
I think, some of those planets that you said we might see were seeing.
And so, an unreal view.
Yeah.
The moon in the foreground is one of the darkest things
we see out the window, and now it's deep space behind it is
is kind of dark blue, like it looks earth.
But we can also still see stars.
Well, it's a, a wicked view.
Because I think just doing the best job.
And I'm not going to try to add on to what he's doing.
It's just it's indescribable.
It's no matter how long we look at this,
our brains are not processing this image in front of us.
It is absolutely spectacular, surreal.
There's no I don't there's no adjectives.
I'm going to need to invent some new ones to describe what we are looking at out
this window.
Artemis is mission control in Houston, Texas.
We are currently five days, two hours and 44 minutes into the Artemis two mission,
and we have about 11 minutes remaining in the eclipse as the latter
half of the lunar flyby that the Artemis
two crew is experiencing on board the Orion spacecraft.
Okay, we all think we're starting to see something.
I believe the most popular term is baby hair.
As the light grows in intensity
and, the horizon on this side becomes a very distinct,
you can still see earthshine,
even though the sun's brightness
is definitely growing in intensity.
I love the description vector.
I'm sure as the next couple minutes progressed, more of those structures
will continue to pop out.
If you've ever seen, the spotlight off the top of the Luxor at night
in Las Vegas, this looks like, what that wants to be when it grows up.
Integrity.
Science. Glad to hear you're following your training of Tesla.
Like you see it.
This is Artemus.
Mission control.
The eclipse period is coming to an end.
And we did hear that call up that the crew now has to put on those eclipse glasses
to be able to protect their eyes for this final portion of the eclipse.
And these views coming to you from these solar array wing cameras
on the Orion spacecraft, you said if you could give me
about 20 new superlatives in the mission summary for tomorrow,
and it'll help my vocabulary out a bit, thank you.
We will solicit input from the team
and integrity science.
This is basically wrapping up your fly by day observations.
I can't say enough how much science we've already learned,
and how much inspiration you've provided to our entire team,
the lunar science community
and the entire world with what you were able to bring today.
You really brought the moon closer for us today.
And we cannot say thank you enough.
And science on and off and
can't wait to talk to you tomorrow morning.
To retired team Kelsey,
to the entire NASA science team.
You all really turn to you when we shift the launch date for April 1st, and you got
the most incredible package together for us to go do some great science
and some great, truly human experience moments here.
And we were well prepared.
And we appreciate all of you.
And this is what we do best when we all come together and work as a team.
So, you know, knock it out of the park.
Thank you for giving us this opportunity.
Beautiful words. Reed.
Thanks so much.
The crew on board the Orion spacecraft recently
completed their lunar observation period.
It was an approximately seven hour period of time in which they were focused
on several different targets identified by the science team
here on the ground that they studied and prepared for ahead of time.
And then they also were referencing a lunar targeting package that was up
linked about a day ago with those final targets.
Now they are completing some post lunar flyby activities,
so they're
working to clean up their observations that they've made and also working
to downlink some of the photos that they've taken throughout the day.
The science team here on the ground will then work to get as much data
as they can overnight, and then there will be a post
flyby conference tomorrow after the crew wakes up.
And that's not a debrief, but a science data collection
to capture their nuanced experience while they're still in the field.
And the experience is still fresh and they are now
about 8100 miles away from that moon, from the moon.
And that distance will continue to increase as they are now.
And the return leg of their journey.
Artemis two crew.
We have a very special guest who wanted to be the first person to greet
you after your return from the far
side of the moon, read Victor, Christina and Jeremy.
It's my honor to introduce the president of the United States
of America, President Donald J. Trump, over to you, sir.
Well, thank you very much, Jared.
And you are doing a fantastic job.
And hello, very special hello to all of us to today.
You've made history and made all America really proud and incredibly proud.
We have a lot of things to be proud of lately,
but this is, there's nothing like what you're doing circling around the moon
for the first time in more than a half a century, and breaking
the all time record for the farthest distance from planet Earth.
Humans have really never seen anything quite
like what you're doing in a manned spacecraft.
It's really special.
I want to personally salute and congratulate commander Reed Weisman,
pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist
Christina Cook, and Jeremy Hanson,
president.
This call is certainly special to all of us,
and we really have a lot of faith in our administrator, Jared Isaacman,
who is with you.
We appreciate his leadership in NASA and in the international community.
We are doing great things and we are proud to be a part of.
It Reed, we were wondering if this adjusted fan speed is something
that you would like to keep going forward, or if it was just a specific change.
Request for the events this evening.
Certainly for POW events, this is an ideal fan speed.
If you're willing to give us this fan speed for routine habitability,
I think we would take it and try it for a while.
And lead.
We are able to support keeping the fan speed in this config.
Happy to keep it here to collect data.
Okay, you got four happy astronauts up here.
We'll take it. Obviously we'll be on exercise. We'll need to pump it up.
But I think for class of living this will be great.
We copy and we love seeing those smiles.
