NASA Selects Volunteers to Track the Orion Spacecraft During its Artemis II Mission Around the Moon

NASA has selected 34 global volunteers to track the Orion spacecraft during the crewed Artemis II test flight's journey around the Moon. This comes as the Agency shifts the mission's earliest possible launch date from February to March after concluding its wet dress rehearsal.
