United States President, Donald Trump, referred to the “superhero” of the director of NASA during an appearance in the Oval Office in which he addressed, among other matters, the publication of files on UFOs. The comment, according to international media, was made in a relaxed tone within a broader intervention, in the framework of a reception for the astronauts of the Artemis II mission.
Trump combined references to space exploration with other topics. In that context, the US president announced that his administration will make public documents related to unidentified aerial phenomena. Trump assured that "many things" will be released and that some will be "very interesting," although he did not specify deadlines or the specific content of that publication.
During the appearance, Trump answered questions linked to NASA and deflected one of them towards its director, Jared Isaacman, to whom he attributed a “super hearing” or “superoído”.
Artemis II
NASA's Artemis II mission, which Trump referred to in his appearance, successfully concluded after the return of its four astronauts to Earth, who splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California after completing a trip around the Moon.
The Orion spacecraft, on which the crew was traveling, completed the descent at 5:07 PM (local time) off San Diego, ending a 10-day expedition. The re-entry into Earth's atmosphere, one of the most critical phases, lasted about 13 minutes.
During that process, the capsule had to withstand extreme conditions, with plasma formation around its heat shield and temperatures close to 2,760 degrees Celsius, while advancing at a speed of about 40,234 kilometers per hour.
NASA Deputy Administrator Amit Kshatriya, pointed out that the mission's essential systems functioned as expected during the most delicate moments of the return. "The Artemis II crew is home. The entry, descent, and landing systems performed as expected and the final test was completed as anticipated," he stated.
Kshatriya also highlighted the joint work that has made it possible to carry out the mission, in which thousands of specialists from different countries have participated. "This moment belongs to the thousands of people from 14 countries who built, tested, and trusted this vehicle," he stressed.
