The Artemis II zero gravity indicator, "Rise," is seen looped around the wrist of NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman, Artemis II commander, before the Artemis II crew appeared on stage for a crew return event, Saturday, Apr. 11, 2026, at Eillington Field in Houston, Texas. NASA’s Artemis II test flight took Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA, and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the CSA (Canadian Space Agency) on an approximately nine-day mission around the Moon and back to Earth.
