- NASA’s Artemis 2 mission will make history as the first crewed mission to the Moon in over 50 years. And now we finally know who will be making that epic journey!
The Artemis 2 mission will have a crew of four. Three will be NASA astronauts: Reid Wiseman as commander, Victor Glover as pilot and Christina Koch as a mission specialist. The fourth crewmember is from the Canadian Space Agency: Jeremy Hansen as a mission specialist.
The selected crew include the first woman and person of color to fly to the Moon. Additionally, the Canadian astronaut will be the first person from a country other than the United States to fly into deep space.

Who else is super excited to see this crew fly around the Moon? 🚀🌕

And in 1972 I was 10 years old. I’ve been waiting 50 years for this!
Good luck and Godspeed, Capricorn One! We're all behind you!
Not many people get to know in advance that they'll go down in history, these lucky people do!
Very interesting to see the differences with apollo...of course the woman and the african american....but something I notice ...not one of them is under 40 years old...during apollo most of the astronauts ...if not all were under 40
Good observation. I didn't notice that. I wonder if that trend will continue throughout the program, or if that's a quirk of this crew selection.
My guess is that today we have the benefit of decades in orbit on the ISS so astronauts with that experience will be chosen instead of someone younger with little to no experience in space.
I wonder if anybody from ESA is going to be selected for any of the Artemis flights. Would be cool to get a European in on it. It's cool that a Canadian has been selected.
There will be someone from ESA on Artemis 3, I believe. Not 100% sure, though. But there will definitely be at least one international partner on every Artemis mission.
With all the new advances in the technology that Space X has accomplished in lowering cost by returning & reusing booster rockets & other equipment that lessens space debris & save’s on turnaround time. I find it hard to understand why only the capsule will return to Earth from Artemis missions ?
Going to the moon requires a lot more fuel and effort than just low Earth orbit.
If SpaceX tried to do the same thing, they would use Falcon Heavy in expendable mode. (No reusing boosters)
As well as a heavily modified crew dragon. ( Needs more life support and larger fuel tanks).
In that case, only the Dragon capsule would return to Earth.
Just like SLS.
That would be at the very edge of its capability with no margin for error.
It's also worth mentioning SLS was designed to take people to Near Earth Asteroids and support manned missions to Mars and Venus.
SLS going to the moon is under-using its capabilities.
The lowering of launch costs by SpaceX had been exaggerated greatly.
Ok so only a flyby. Funny I though the last one was a fly by based on how little of the moon we actually got to see and this one will be even farther away. A bit of a shame to half-ass it like that when we havent been there for half s century and now when were finally taking the time to go out there were gonna do such a poor job at it. Would have been nice with an actual closeup of the moon.
It's to test the life support systems, like Apollo 8. Shouldn't go without testing.
So you think there is shame in valuing the lives of our astronauts and their CSA equivalent? He stated in the video that they won’t have enough fuel to orbit. The only thing “half assed” is your ability to comprehend what was just said in the video apparently.
Never going to the Moon again......

Wumao
This will be the first crew that will never return from space. This crew is on a doom mission built by boeing. The command module has so many problems that it has been delayed and delayed. I predict they will make it to the moon and lift back off, but they will not make it back to earth.
the orion has literally been tested in space for 26 days lmao
@@Vakowski so were the shuttles lmao
It's sad when people like you have to lie to feel good about yourself.
LOL!!
Orion is not built by Boeing, it is developed by NASA and assembled by Lockheed Martin and Airbus.
Boeing is building and developing the Starliner spacecraft but that is a separate spacecraft.
Orion completed Artemis 1 with nearly flawless performance, perforoming even better than expected on some aspects.
Bye bye crew....look back at the earth for the last time
Imagine if starship dearmoon launches before this!😂
It won't. I don't see dearmoon flying until at least 2027. No disrespect to them, but space always takes way longer than we'd like, especially when lives are on the line. It'll be an amazing mission when it flies!
I dont see a Starship ever launching. It has many flaws. Sure, I admit, its cool but not a good design. It doesn't have an abort system, which is a huge safety concern. "but the space shuttle didn't have a launch escape system either" and that ended up in the Challenger disaster and the shuttles got retired in 2011.
Also, landing is not gonna be very easy as well. They always show it reentering vertically, the heat shield facing forwards. And then they show "and by they I mean spacex" that it lands vertically. Okay so during reentry it has a ton of horizontal speed, and by landing it has no vertical speed. Also it has to land in a specific place, just like the space shuttle. But the space shuttle was also a plane, so it could fly to the runway. The Starship can't. The only thing the Starship can do is to hop with its engine, but that wont be fuel efficient and release a lot of smoke everywhere.
@OrbitalVelocity I agree. Historically speaking, rocket development takes about 10 years minimum.
2027-2030 is a likely timeline.
