On Thursday, during Artemis 2’s mission to the Moon, Commander Reed Wiseman encountered a technical problem that some of us on Earth can relate to: Microsoft Outlook was not working. In a conversation captured on NASA’s Artemis live stream,… Shared on BlueskyWeissman reported to Mission Control: “I also see that I have two Microsoft Outlook programs and neither of them are working.”
To deal with this problem, Mission Control had to remotely access Wiseman’s personal computer (PCD), a Microsoft Surface Pro. During a press conference on Thursday, Artemis flight director Judd Freeling said He said NASA fixed the problemexplaining, “This is not uncommon. We have this on the terminal all the time. You know, Outlook sometimes has configuration issues, especially when you don’t have a directly connected network. So we just had to reload it onto Outlook to get it to work.”
