Description

President Trump is set to honor the Artemis II crew with the Congressional Space Medal of Honor this Friday, celebrating their historic 10-day lunar flyby—the first time humans have ventured beyond the moon in over 50 years. They also broke records as the first to fly NASA’s Orion spacecraft, paving the way for future missions. Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen, a key crew member, is stepping down from full-time duties after 32 years in the military and 17 as an astronaut, transitioning to a reservist role while staying connected to the Canadian Armed Forces. Meanwhile, NASA has unveiled the Artemis III crew, including Randy Bresnik and Luca Parmitano, who will train in orbit for the upcoming moon landing mission. The ceremony kicks off at 11 AM Eastern—marking a triumphant moment for space exploration history.
