An object briefly stole the spotlight during a livestream of Artemis II: a jar of Nutella drifting weightlessly inside the Orion spacecraft.
The four-member crew, Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen, were in the midst of a landmark journey around the Moon when the now-viral footage emerged.
NASA dismissed the idea of product placement, stating that the agency 'does not select crew meals or food in association with brand partnerships.'
The floating jar is understood to be part of the astronauts' onboard food supplies, rather than any commercial collaboration.
