Toutes les opérations se sont déroulées parfaitement : 5 mises à feu au périgée ont suffi pour porter l'apogée à 31 000 km. Puis 3 mises à feu à l'apogée ont placé Artemis sur une orbite d'attente circulaire de 31 000 km. Compte tenu du caractère exceptionnel de la situation et du parfait fonctionnement du satellite, les mises à feu au périgée et à l'apogée ont été extrêmement efficaces, consumant environ 95 % des ergols chimiques embarqués. 2, record 3, French, - fonctionnement%20du%20satellite
