在阿尔忒弥斯1号任务的第13天(11月28日),猎户座飞船到达了离地球的最大距离。事实上,距离地球43万多公里的遥远逆行轨道也使猎户座距离月球近7万公里。在飞行第13天的同一视场中,从无人驾驶航天器的角度来看,行星和大型天然卫星的表观尺寸几乎相同。今天(12月1日)应该会看到猎户座离开它遥远的逆行轨道。在飞往地球的途中,它将第二次飞越月球。预计将于12月11日溅落在地球上。

On flight day 13 (November 28) of the Artemis 1 mission the Orion spacecraft reached its maximum distance from Earth. In fact, over 430,000 kilometers from Earth its distant retrograde orbit also put Orion nearly 70,000 kilometers from the Moon. In the same field of view in this video frame from flight day 13, planet and large natural satellite even appear about the same apparent size from the uncrewed spacecraft's perspective. Today (December 1) should see Orion depart its distant retrograde orbit. En route to planet Earth it will head toward a second powered fly by of the Moon. Splashdown on the home world is expected on December 11.
