(Daily Mail) NASA finally launched its ‘CAPSTONE’ spacecraft on Tuesday morning, marking an important early stage in its Artemis space programme.
The craft, which is about the size of a microwave oven and weighs just 55 pounds, blasted off from Māhia Peninsula, New Zealand at 10:55 BST (21:55 local time).
Over six months, it will test the stability of a halo-shaped orbit around the moon before this orbit is used by Lunar Gateway, NASA’s planned lunar outpost.
