Apollo 16’s Charlie Duke sends inspiring message to Artemis II crew as they approach the Moon

As the Artemis II crew is about to achieve a lunar flyby, they received a stirring message from a legendary predecessor: Apollo 16 Moonwalker Charlie Duke. While 1972 marked his historic stroll on the lunar surface, Duke’s voice has been a constant in lunar history. He served as the Capcom who talked Apollo 11 down to the surface and was a vital member of the Apollo 10 and 13 teams. Now, more than five decades later, the "youngest man on the Moon" passes the torch to the four explorers leading humanity's return.
