NASA and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) have announced the four astronauts - three Americans and a Canadian - who will venture around the Moon on Artemis II, the first crewed mission to establish a long-term presence on the Moon for science and exploration through Artemis.
Revealing the crew members Monday during an event at Ellington Field near NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said, "The Artemis II crew represents thousands of people working tirelessly to bring us to the stars. Together, we are ushering in a new era of exploration for a new generation of star sailors and dreamers - the Artemis Generation."
