Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) took the podium soon after to thank the Artemis II crew on behalf of America. The congressman stated that the United States, as well as the world, “desperately needed this.”
Cloud said the mission reminded him of Psalm 8, affirming that “even as we look to the night sky and as we look at creation, and behold the stars and the moon, we begin to think about what is mankind from God’s perspective.”
The Artemis II crew reached a point 252,756 miles from Earth and set a new human record for the maximum distance away from the planet.
Artemis III is set for mid-2027, while Artemis IV is targeted for early 2028 and is expected to land humans on the moon.
