Artemis II crew enter spacecraft
Artemis II crew members — Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen and NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch — have entered the Orion spacecraft after arriving at the launch pad.
Anticipation for the first crewed trip to the moon in 52 years is building, as new launch windows open for the Artemis II mission. NASA is getting ready to launch four astronauts, including Canada's Jeremy Hansen, on a 10-day flight around the moon and back.
Hansen, Commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover and mission specialist Christina Koch have entered the Orion capsule atop the giant Space Launch System rocket at Launch Pad 39B at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla.
Artemis II seeks to take astronauts farther from Earth than any previous human spaceflight. If the mission succeeds, the flight could lay the groundwork for future missions to the moon's surface.
The first of these windows for launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida is today from 6:24 p.m. To 8:24 p.m. ET. If today's liftoff is scrubbed — and it can happen at any time — there will be subsequent opportunities every subsequent night until Monday.
