Artemis II continues to captivate millions worldwide as the crew's journey to the Moon unfolds live, offering breathtaking views of the rarely seen far side of the lunar surface. But the mission also brings more down-to-earth challenges, including a persistent onboard toilet issue. Over 16 million people have tuned in to NASA's live feed, with many catching this exchange between Ground Control and the crew just a short while ago. FRANCE 24's Gavin Lee is joined by Olivier Sanguy, Editor-in-Chief of Space News, in Toulouse.

Produced by Gavin Lee, Jamie-Smith Maillet and Guillaume Gougeon
