Honoring the crew of the Artemis II mission for their historic lunar flyby.

Key Points

• This resolution recognizes the four astronauts who completed the Artemis II mission in early 2026. It celebrates their 10-day trip around the moon, which was the first time humans had traveled that far in over 50 years.
• The crew included Victor Glover, the first Black astronaut to travel to the moon, and Christina Koch, the first woman to do so. It also included Jeremy Hansen, the first person from another country to join a moon mission.
• The proposal suggests creating a National Artemis II Mission Day to remember the flight. This mission is seen as a major step toward landing people on the moon's surface again in the future.
