Krispy Kreme is releasing a special doughnut on Monday, Aug. 29, to honor NASA’s rocket launch to the moon. The treat has been named after the Artemis 1 mission project, and it is called the Artemis Moon doughnut.
Krispy Kreme’s new treat is a limited-edition item, and it will be available on the same day as the Artemis 1’s launch. The rocket has been designed to carry human passengers later. This is an unmanned test flight that will go around the moon.
It was said that space flight is the first step in NASA's plan to bring a human to the moon again for the first time in 50 years. In any case, the doughnut retail chain is honoring the rocket launch and guarantees that the new sweet treat is going to be enjoyed by everyone.
As per CNN Business, Artemis Moon is a doughnut with a cheesecake creme filling and dipped in the brand’s own cookies ‘n Kreme icing. It has chocolate pieces in the frosting to resemble the moon’s rocky surface.
The goal of NASA’s Artemis 1 program is to land humans on the moon again, including the first woman and person of color by the year 2025. On its launch today, the government’s aeronautics and space agency is one step toward that goal. The rocket will be looping around the moon and testing the important elements in the mission.
“The Artemis 1 mission is a proud moment, and we are in awe of the amazing Americans behind the world’s most powerful rocket so, we created these delicious doughnuts to enjoy while you watch the launch,” Krispy Kreme’s chief brand officer, Dave Skena, said in a press release.
He added, “The Orion spacecraft atop the rocket will stay in space longer than any ship for astronauts has done without docking to a space station, but our Artemis Moon Doughnut will be available only Monday, so start the countdown and don’t miss it!”
The countdown begins! ?? In celebration of the @NASA Artemis I Mission, our #Artemis Moon Doughnut is taking off ONE DAY ONLY Monday, 8/29! ?

Meanwhile, CNBC reported that the Artemis 1 mission is NASA’s most powerful rocket yet. It will be launched today from Kennedy Space Center in Florida, and it will be a more than a month-long journey around the moon. It will not carry astronauts and will not be landing on the moon, but it is an important mission to show that the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion capsule are capable of delivering their promised capabilities.
