NASA is gearing up for the launch of Artemis II, that will make the first crewed mission to the Moon since the Apollo era more than five decades ago. Liftoff is targeted for no earlier than April 1 from Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
This will be Jeremy Hansen’s first trip to space — and he gets to aim straight for the moon. One of two mission specialists on Artemis II, Mr. Hansen will also make history as the first Canadian to circle around the moon.
Four astronauts strapped into NASA’s new moon rocket and awaited liftoff Wednesday on humanity’s first lunar trip in more than half a century. The three Americans and one Canadian waved and shaped their hands into hearts as they emerged from crew quarters to cheers and said goodbye to their families.
