Apollo 13/ Odyssey went 248,655 miles. Artemis I/ Orion has been projected to go a maximum of 270,000 miles. This article is abit jumbled.

So, 8 years ago, Reddit knew this. But one of the guys working the mission didn't know til like 2021ish? Why would this man not know this, but rest of the world does? I feel bad for Gerry. Going 50+ years not knowing the mission he became a hero in broke the record.
