GoPro, Inc. today announced that GoPro cameras are being used onboard the Artemis II mission, capturing imagery as the Orion spacecraft travels around the Moon and back.
Artemis II marks the first crewed flight of NASA’s Artemis program, returning humans to lunar orbit for the first time in more than 50 years.
Modified GoPro cameras are mounted externally on the Orion spacecraft’s solar array wings, where they will capture stunning views of the spacecraft, Earth, and the Moon. These GoPro cameras are included in the Orion Imagery System and a broader 28+ camera suite supporting the mission.
And according to National Geographic, the four‑astronaut Artemis II crew is equipped with GoPro cameras to document daily life on the mission from inside the spacecraft, helping tell the human story of this historic flight.
“GoPro is honoured that our cameras are aboard the historic Artemis II mission,” said Nicholas Woodman, GoPro’s founder and CEO. “GoPros are designed to capture amazing perspectives in the most extreme conditions imaginable…and it doesn’t get much more extreme than going to the Moon and back. We wish the Orion crew a safe and successful mission and want to congratulate everyone who has made Artemis II a reality—respect.”
The Orion spacecraft successfully launched on April 1, 2026. You can learn all about the National Geographic “Return to the Moon” project and tour of a replica of the Orion spacecraft and see the astronauts using their GoPro cameras here.
