NASA’s Artemis II mission will launch this evening, humanity’s first flight to the moon since 1972.
The launch is scheduled for 23:24pm British Summer Time (18:24 EDT) from the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, with the countdown clock scheduled since Monday.
After weeks of fuel leaks and other issues, things seem to be going NASA’s way as they proceed toward launch.
Here are the four astronauts making up the crew onboard.
