During a live stream from NASA's Artemis II Orion spacecraft, an astronaut reported having two instances of Microsoft Outlook running, both not functioning. The astronaut called on Mission Control in Houston to address the issue, leading to remote assistance from NASA. Despite the initial problems, Outlook was eventually brought back online. The use of standard software like Outlook in space missions is part of astronauts' daily operations alongside specialized hardware and software.
