A New Era: Meet the Artemis II Crew live on Monday, April 3rd


At 11 a.m. EDT on Monday, April 3rd, NASA and the Canadian Space Agency will announce the four astronauts who will venture around the Moon. The crew will include three NASA astronauts and one Canadian Space Agency astronaut, demonstrating our commitment to international partnerships through the Artemis program.

Traveling aboard the Orion spacecraft, the Artemis II mission is the first crewed flight test on the path to establishing a long-term scientific and human presence on the lunar surface.
Artemis II builds on the successful Artemis I flight test, which launched an uncrewed Orion, atop the Space Launch System rocket, on a 1.4-million-mile journey beyond the Moon to test systems before astronauts fly aboard the systems on a mission to the Moon.
