Note that Artemis II will surpass the Apollo 13 distance at 1:56 pm EDT (17:56 UTC).
At 7:07 pm EDT (23:07 UTC), the spacecraft will reach the farthest distance from Earth, ~6,550 km beyond the moon.
Currently, Orion has crossed the Moon's orbit, the Moon is still lagging behind by ~24,000 km and will get closer as Orion travels farther out and then loops back.
