Astronauts who recently flew around the moon are ending their spaceflight careers. They will still be involved in moon exploration, but in a different capacity. Two astronauts, previously part of a record-setting mission, have been named emeritus astronauts, meaning they will donate their time to support the program.

Their new roles come after a notable achievement earlier this year. The crew's accomplishments include setting a new distance record for humanity.

Further details about their future plans and continued involvement with the program are available.
