NASA Artemis II Crew Module Training | Kennedy Space Center

The Artemis II crew (from left to right): Canadian Space Agency (CSA) Jeremy Hansen, mission specialist; Christina Koch, mission specialist; Victor Glover, pilot; and Reid Wiseman, commander, don their Orion Crew Survival System Suits for a multi-day crew module training beginning Thursday, July 31, 2025, at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. 

Behind the crew, wearing clean room apparel, are members of the Artemis II closeout crew. Testing included a suited crew test and crew equipment interface test, performing launch day and simulated orbital activities inside the Orion spacecraft. This series of tests marks the first time the crew entered their spacecraft that will take them around the Moon and back to Earth while wearing their spacesuits. 

The Artemis II crew will be sent on a ten-day Moon journey no earlier than April 2026.
