On 3 April, the US and Canadian space agencies announced the crew of astronauts who, in late 2024, will boldly go where no one has gone before. The four astronauts of the Artemis Il mission will travel further from Earth than any humans before, in an important test flight for the new Orion spacecraft. On board will be NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman (mission commander), Victor J. Glover (pilot) and Christina Hammock Koch (mission specialist), along with Canadian Space Agency crew member Jeremy Hansen (mission specialist). So, join us on an adventure to the Moon - and beyond.
