- ryandrake 6mo agoIt will be slower, eventually. The moon orbits at about 2300 mph, and as Artemis gets further from Earth, it will slow down to a similar speed.
- CobrastanJorji 6mo agoWell, notions of speed are a little tricky for spaceships, but yeah, Artemis's top speed is going to be right when it starts reentry: about 25,000 MPH.
