"We're going to the Moon," exclaimed Artemis II mission Commander Reid Wiseman at the top of a press conference with the Artemis II crew at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. Pilot Victor Glover and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA joined the commander, as well as Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the Canadian Space Agency. The crew spoke on several topics related to the 10-day mission around the moon, including scientific research and exploration, the space race with China, concerns or risks associated with the mission, and the historic nature of Artemis II and its parallels to past Apollo missions, such as Apollo 7, 8, and 9.
