Artemis II Crew with EGS

Artemis II astronauts visit NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Aug. 7, 2023. In front, from left, are NASA astronauts Victor Glover and Reid Weisman, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hanson with the Exploration Ground Systems team beneath the mobile launcher 1. The approximately 10-day Artemis II flight will test NASA’s foundational human deep space exploration capabilities, the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft, for the first time with astronauts and will pave the way for lunar surface missions, including landing the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon.
