On its way to the moon, the design for an exercise device took to the skies above Montreal for a parabolic flight. The July series of experiments evaluated health tech for astronauts, too.

Andre Douglas became eligible for NASA spaceflights in March. Weeks later, the NASA astronaut learned he would back up the next mission to fly humans around the moon.

Artemis 2's core stage is near its launch site in Florida after sailing more than 900 miles from New Orleans. The rocket is scheduled to send NASA astronauts around the moon in 2025.
