The USS John P. Murtha delivered the Artemis II capsule to San Diego, a transport ship longer than two football fields, after a successful landing by astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen. The historic 10-day mission had been watched online by the public, with many expressing deep interest. The Navy and NASA managed to overcome challenges including unexpected strong currents and a lack of audio communications with the astronauts. The Apollo mission was launched during the height of the U.S. and Iran conflict. The astronauts returned to Houston on the 56th anniversary of the launch of the Apollo 13.
