Why We’re Going Back to the Moon | NASA’s Artemis II Moon Mission Astronauts

"The crew of NASA’s Artemis II moon mission, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen of Canada, join Stephen Colbert to discuss how they are preparing for their mission, and why they have their sights set on Mars as the next frontier for human exploration." 

NASA announced on Monday, April 3, 2023, in Houston, Texas, that four astronauts have been selected for NASA’s Artemis II Mission: Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA, and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the Canadian Space Agency.

Artemis II will be NASA’s first crewed flight test of the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft around the Moon to verify today’s capabilities for humans to explore deep space and pave the way for long-term exploration and science on the lunar surface.
