Artemis II Crew with EGS

Artemis II NASA astronaut Christina Koch greets members of the Artemis launch team inside Firing Room 1 in the Launch Control at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Aug. 7, 2023. Koch and fellow Artemis II astronauts Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen are at the center to meet workers and tour facilities. The approximately 10-day Artemis II flight will test NASA’s foundational human deep space exploration capabilities, the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft, for the first time with astronauts and will pave the way for lunar surface missions, including landing the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon.
