The recent selection of four astronauts for the Artemis II lunar flyby mission by NASA has been a significant step forward in re-establishing human presence on the lunar surface 
. The diverse crew, comprising Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen, reflects NASA's efforts to recruit a more inclusive group of astronauts 
. This is particularly noteworthy given the agency's history of prioritizing test pilots for previous missions.The Artemis II mission marks an essential milestone in NASA's plan to return humans to the moon for an extended period
. The success of this mission could have far-reaching implications, paving the way for even more ambitious endeavors, such as sending humans to Mars in the near future 
. It will be fascinating to observe how this crew navigates their historic journey and whether they successfully overcome any challenges that may arise during the 10-day mission 
.
. reid wiseman, victor glover, christina koch, and jeremy hansen are all about to become legends in the space world... i hope they're all good at teamwork, though - 10 days is a long time to be cooped up 
. this artemis ii mission is just the beginning, btw... we might actually have humans on mars within our lifetime 
. can't wait to see what's next for space travel! 
I mean, can you even imagine being part of that? The fact that they're including Canadians too is just awesome 
. And it's not just about the astronauts themselves, but also the message it sends out to everyone who looks up at the moon wondering if humans will ever set foot there again 
and Jeremy Hansen is gonna be the first Canadian astronaut in deep space?! what if he sees the Milky Way or something for the first time?
