NASA Clarifies Nutella Jar in Zero Gravity During Artemis II Live Broadcast

A jar of Nutella floated freely inside the Orion spacecraft’s cabin during NASA’s live broadcast on April 6.

This event occurred about four minutes before the crew set a new record for humans traveling farthest from Earth.

The floating Nutella jar went viral on social media, with many viewers joking about it being the “best product placement ever.”

NASA’s Kennedy Space Center posted on X that they were enjoying sweet treats while the Artemis crew took photos of the Moon.

However, NASA press secretary Bethany Stevens clarified to media that this was not a product placement.
