Two astronauts who recently flew around the moon are ending their spaceflight careers. They will continue to contribute to moon exploration efforts, but in a different capacity. Their flight in April set a new record for the farthest distance traveled by humans.

The astronauts' new roles will involve supporting the program without being active participants. One has taken a leadership position at a university, while the other's plans are not specified.

Further information about their transition and future involvement with the program is available from NASA's announcement.
