It returned from a 25-day test flight around the moon.The vehicle hit Earth's atmosphere at a mind-bending 40,000 kilometers per hour. Though this one was uncrewed, NASA is aiming for missions with astronauts as soon as 2025.The Artemis launch faced several delays about a month ago, but proceeded smoothly from there.
