Artemis II is NASA\u2019s first crewed mission under the Artemis program and will launch from the agency\u2019s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. It 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. Launching on NASA\u2019s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket, the agency will test the Orion spacecraft\u2019s life support systems for the first time with humans aboard, helping lay the groundwork for future crewed Artemis missions.<\/p>\n

Briefings, events, and 24\/7 mission coverage will be on the agency\u2019s YouTube<\/a> channel, and events will each have their own stream closer to their start time.<\/p>\n
