About the Artemis Audio Library
This page hosts a growing collection of authentic sounds recorded during NASA’s Artemis campaign as humanity returns to the Moon. All audio files are free to download and cleared for use in accordance with NASA’s media usage guidelines. This library will be updated regularly as new mission audio becomes available.
Teams across NASA are documenting the Artemis campaign by recording mission activity, including interviews with subject matter experts, and behind-the-scenes recordings during launches, testing, and operations. These recordings are shared publicly to support transparency, public understanding, and creative reuse.
Audio in this library may include launch and mission operations sounds, ambient and environmental recordings, and other field audio captured during Artemis I, Artemis II, and related mission activities.
