Meet the Astronauts Who will Fly Around the Moon

Four astronauts—pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch from NASA, mission specialist Jeremy Hansen from the Canadian Space Agency, and commander Reid Wiseman—have been chosen to serve on NASA's Artemis II mission. NASA's first crewed flight test of the Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System rocket around the Moon, Artemis II will confirm that humans are capable of exploring deep space today and open the door for long-term lunar exploration and study.
