Weekend Outlook
Artemis 2 Splashdown Forecast
Get ready for an incredible moment as we watch for the Artemis 2 capsule’s splashdown! The weather forecast off the Southern California coast is looking favorable for Friday’s splashdown of the Artemis 2 capsule. Mission controllers and recovery teams at sea will be keeping a close eye on conditions right up until splashdown. According to NASA, there must be no rain or thunderstorms within 30 nautical miles of the recovery area. Waves should stay under 6 feet, and winds need to remain below 25 knots for the recovery boats. The slight chance of showers and the wave heights are the main weather factors to keep an eye on.
