Episode Details

NASAs Artemis two mission astronauts successfully fixed their moon mission toilet, ensuring a comfortable journey. After launch on April 1, 2026, Christina Koch, with mission controls help, resolved the issue. The crew, including Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Jeremy Hansen, is currently in orbit, preparing for a Thursday night burn out of Earth orbit. The mission marks the first lunar push since Apollos conclusion in 1972. The crew is enjoying stunning views from their vantage point, 10,000 miles above Earth. The universal waste setup, using air suction, has proven to be a significant improvement over the basic bags used in Apollo missions, providing a more comfortable experience for the crew, especially for women. The mission is set to conclude with a Pacific splashdown on April 10, 2026, paving the way for crewed moon landings in 2028.
