NASA’s Artemis II mission, set to launch as early as February 2026, marks a historic return to lunar exploration after a 50-year hiatus. Commander Reid Wiseman and his crew, including mission specialist Christina Koch, Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen, and Victor Glover, are poised to embark on a journey that promises to redefine humanity’s understanding of the Moon and beyond. The mission, part of NASA’s broader Artemis program, aims to establish a sustained human presence on the lunar surface and pave the way for future Mars exploration.
