NASA says the Artemis II crew surpassed Apollo 13’s 1970 record by reaching a farthest distance of about 248,655 miles (400,171 km) from Earth, with their maximum distance expected to be about 252,757 miles (406,773 km). The crew—Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen—are traveling in a trajectory around the Moon, where distance varies with the Moon’s position and the mission’s closest approach.
