Artemis II

Sending Humans Back to the Moon

Tickets kaufen

For the first time since 1972, NASA is sending humans back on a path toward the Moon with the Artemis II mission. Launching aboard a Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, as well as Jeremy Hansen from the Canadian Space Agency, will set off to orbit the Moon on a 10-day mission. This will be the first crewed flight of the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft around the Moon. Their goal is to verify modern human capabilities in deep space and pave the way for long-term exploration and science on the lunar surface.

Get up close to Artemis II from right here at Kennedy Space Center. Launch viewing opportunities and events surrounding the mission will be announced soon, but in the meantime, do not miss seeing Artemis II on the launch pad! Explore experiences below.

How to View Artemis II Before it Launches

The SLS rocket is currently on Kennedy Space Center’s LC-39B. Explore all the ways you can get a glimpse of this mighty rocket before it launches to the Moon’s orbit. No where else gets you closer.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman will serve as the Commander for the Artemis II mission. Wiseman flew previously as a flight engineer aboard the International Station for Expedition 41 from May through November 2014, logging more than 165 days in space. Prior to his assignment, Wiseman served as chief of the Astronaut Office from December 2020 until November 2022.

NASA Astronaut Victor Glover will be making his second flight to space as the pilot of the Artemis II mission. Glover previously served as pilot on NASA’s SpaceX Crew-1, which landed May 2, 2021, after 168 days in space. As a flight engineer aboard the space station for Expedition 64, he contributed to scientific investigations, technology demonstrations, and participated in four spacewalks.

 NASA Astronaut Christina Hammock Koch will be making her second flight to space on the Artemis II mission, serving as a mission specialist. Koch served as flight engineer aboard the space station for Expeditions 59, 60, and 61. Koch set a record for the longest single spaceflight by a woman with a total of 328 days in space and participated in the first all-female spacewalks.

  • Missionsspezialist

Canadian Space Agency Astronaut Jeremy Hansen is making his first flight to space as a mission specialist on the Artemis II mission. He was one of two recruits selected by CSA in May 2009 through the third Canadian Astronaut Recruitment Campaign and has served in many roles supporting human spaceflight. Hansen has served as Capcom in NASA's Mission Control Center at the Johnson Space Center and in 2017, became the first Canadian to be entrusted with leading a NASA astronaut class, leading the training of astronaut candidates from the United States and Canada. This image was modified to include CSA’s insignia on the center front of Hansen’s spacesuit. The insignia was not available at the time of the photo. It will be on Hansen’s suit for Artemis II.
