What happened

NASA is set to launch four astronauts as soon as Wednesday evening on a 10-day flight around the moon, marking the most ambitious U.S.

Why it matters

FRANCE 24's Mark Owen speaks with astronaut Jean-François Clervoy, Founder of Air Zero G, about what life is going to be like for astronauts on board the Artemis II.

Common ground

He says the mission capsule is a very confined space and the four astronauts "better get along with each other".

Perspective signals
