After cancellation of the first outbound trajectory correction burn, the Artemis II crew began preparing the Orion spacecraft’s cabin for the lunar observation period on Monday, April 6, at approximately 2:30 p.m. Additionally, crew members have been exercising, practicing medical response procedures, and testing the spacecraft’s emergency communications system in deep space.
The crew is scheduled to begin getting ready for bed soon, and will begin their sleep period around 3 a.m. CDT. The ground team will wake them up to begin Flight Day 4 at 11:35 a.m. on Saturday, April 4.
