Artemis II astronauts break a record, name a crater
SMRTR summary
The Artemis II crew made history by traveling over 248,655 miles from Earth, breaking Apollo 13's 56-year-old distance record for human spaceflight. During a naming ceremony in lunar orbit, the astronauts proposed naming two moon craters—one called "Integrity" after their spacecraft, and another "Carroll" to honor commander Reid Wiseman's late wife who died from cancer in 2020. Both names require approval from the International Astronomical Union before becoming official.
