Follow latest updates, including how to watch the launch, as four astronauts prepare to set off on a 10-day, 685,000-mile journey with millions watching
Unlike the Apollo moon landings from 1969 to 1972, when millions of people had to gather around small TV sets to watch missions unfold in often grainy and ghosting black and white video, every moment of Artemis II will be a fully online, high-resolution multimedia experience.
The Guardian has a live feed at the top of this blog you can follow.
Nasa has countless webpages dedicated to every aspect of the flight from its homepage at nasa.gov, and the space agency has a significant presence on numerous social media platforms including X, YouTube, Instagram and Twitch.
Additionally, it runs a free, on-demand streaming channel, Nasa+, which will provide live coverage from before launch to after splashdown, including all press briefings. It also has a dedicated app for smart devices.
