Artemis III ESA Service Module

This structure. shown on Sept. 3, 2020, is the frame and base for the European Service Module, part of NASA’s Orion spacecraft that will return humans to the Moon. Built in Turin, Italy, at Thales Alenia Space, this is the third such structure to roll out of production. However, this one is extra special, as it will fly the first woman and next man to land on the Moon and return on the Artemis III mission. Image credit: Thales Alenia Space
