NASA’s Orion capsule and its test dummies swooped one last time around the moon Monday, flying over a couple Apollo landing sites before heading home.

NASA’s Orion capsule has broken the distance record set by Apollo 13 for a mission with a spacecraft designed to carry humans to deep space and back to Earth.

NASA’s Orion capsule is now circling the moon in an orbit stretching tens of thousands of miles. The capsule and its three test dummies entered lunar orbit Friday, more than a week after launching on the test flight.

The Orion spacecraft came within about 80 miles of the lunar surface.

NASA’s Orion capsule reached the moon Monday, whipping around the back side and passing within 80 miles on its way to a record-breaking lunar orbit.
