Tours were given in Sandusky, OH at Neil Armstrong Test Facility on September 11, 2024.  Pictured is Josh Pawlak, Kathryn Oriti, Commander Reid Wiseman, Mission Specialist Christina Koch and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen.  Employees meet three of the four astronauts who will venture around the Moon on Artemis II, the first crewed flight paving the way for future lunar surface missions. Commander Reid Wiseman and Mission Specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen will be on hand to discuss their upcoming mission and participate in a Question and Answer session with employees afterward. Hansen is an astronaut with the Canadian Space Agency. Victor Glover, the pilot and fourth crew member, will not be present.  Awards were given to employees that participated in Orion for Artemis I.

Orion Technical Visit and Artemis II All Hands
Tours were given of the In Space Propulsion Facility (ISP). NASA’s Facility is the world’s only high altitude test facility capable of full-scale rocket engine and launch vehicle system level tests. The facility supports mission profile thermal vacuum simulation and engine firing.  Pictured are Mission Specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen, Penelope Garcia-Galan, Kathryn Oriti,  General David Stringer, Tiffany O'Rourke and Commander Reid Wiseman.
