We power up Artemis III 🌙
Europe’s vital contribution to the Artemis missions just took another leap forward.
The European Service Module (ESM-3) is on its way to the United States of America, ready to be the powerhouse for @NASA’s Orion spacecraft on Artemis III - the first crewed mission back to the Moon in over 50 years!
This marvel of engineering will provide astronauts with essential resources like electricity, water, and temperature control, allowing them to explore the lunar surface for the first time since Apollo 17.
This is a huge moment for international collaboration in space exploration, paving the way for a new era of lunar discovery!
