Media accreditation is open for the launch of the first crewed Moon mission under NASA\u2019s Artemis campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Targeted to launch in early 2026, the Artemis II test flight will send NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen on an approximately 10-day journey around the Moon and back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crew will lift off from the agency\u2019s Kennedy Space Center in Florida inside NASA\u2019s Orion spacecraft on the agency\u2019s powerful (SLS) Space Launch System rocket to help confirm the systems and hardware needed for human deep space exploration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International media without U.S. citizenship must apply to view the launch by Sunday, Nov. 30. U.S. media must apply by Monday, Dec. 8. Journalists who already have annual badges to NASA Kennedy also must apply. Those who are accredited to attend the Artemis II launch also will be accredited to attend pre-launch events, including rollout of the integrated rocket and spacecraft several weeks before launch. Additional details about launch dates will be provided later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Media may submit accreditation requests online at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/media.ksc.nasa.gov<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to high interest, space is limited to attend launch activities. Credentialed media will receive a confirmation email upon approval, along with additional information about pre-launch and launch activities. NASA\u2019s media accreditation policy<\/a> is available online. For questions about accreditation, please email: ksc-media-accreditat@mail.nasa.gov<\/a>. For other questions, please contact the NASA Kennedy newsroom at: 321-867-2468.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of a Golden Age of innovation and exploration, Artemis will pave the way for new U.S.-crewed missions on the lunar surface in preparation toward the first crewed mission to Mars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
