Reid Wiseman Well, Jeremy asked me to move in with him when I was looking for a place to live when we first got here, and I was like, there is no way I’m moving in with that guy. Like, we’ll never graduate from our astronaut candidate, period. So I said no, and I rented a little apartment down by Kemah, Texas for our transition here with my family. And I look back and really regret that. I think we would have had a lot of fun if I said yes to that request. Jeremy Hansen Yeah, you should regret that life choice. Nilufar Ramji Anything to counter that, Jeremy? Jeremy Hansen Not really. No. I’ll leave it at that. You got enough from that. That snippet.

Nilufar Ramji So the four of your names were announced to the world in early 2023. I want to know a little bit about how you were told and how you were feeling in that exact moment. Reid Wiseman Everybody always asks this question. Nilufar Ramji I know. The world always wants to know. I actually don’t know the answer to that question. Reid Wiseman First, we’d have had to have shown up to the meeting on time. Christina Koch We were all late. Victor Glover We’ll never forget March 7, 2023. A date that will live in infamy. Christina Koch We really demonstrated to our leadership that they chose the right crew. None of us were on time. Reid Wiseman I missed it all together. Christina Koch You had to video chat in. Reid Wiseman Oh, yeah, I did.

Christina Koch Yeah, we were late because I had the wrong impression that it was a virtual meeting, which I took from a different NASA site here. And yeah, I guess I know my impression was when I finally did make it, which about 15 minutes late, walked into the room, saw my boss and my boss’s boss and you. And thought, were you? You weren’t, yeah, just Victor, and those, those other two. And I thought, Oh, wow, we’re in for something here. And sat down and got the question. Reid Wiseman Joe Acaba put a meeting on my calendar that was about some Soyuz related thing. And I just, I completely ignored it. And then at some point he texted me, and was like, Are you going to join the meeting? And I said, I just thought this was like, arbitrary type of thing. And so I teamed in from the lobby of a doctor’s office, and I saw those two sitting there with our Big Boss, Norm Knight, the director of flight operations, and then Joe Acaba, the chief astronaut. And I was like, oh boy, I picked the wrong meeting to miss.

If anyone wants to laugh a fair bit from NASA's podcast with the Artemis II crew that was done ahead of the flight, with it here: www.nasa.gov/podcasts/hou...

The City of Pittsburgh just passed legislation banning cooperation with ICE.

Four of the stages of grief lol

Denial, Bargaining, Depression, and Anger

Acceptance is not there lol

thats the retail worker look of Trying Not To Get Fired

congratulations to the crew of Integrity for enduring the most awkward possible press conference imaginable

Somewhere around the Moon, there are four astronauts screaming in their heads trying to keep smiling at the camera

you notice how the whole mood has dropped in the capsule when they announced who was the special guest

"Superlative thumbs up!"

"Houston if you can give me about 20 new superlatives in the mission summary for tomorrow, that'll help my vocabulary out a bit, thank you!"

"It's indescribable! No matter how long we look at this, our brains are not processing this image in front of us. It is absolutely spectacular, surreal—there's no adjectives. I'm gonna need to invent some new ones to describe what we're looking out this window."

impact flash moonjoy pog, live science director Kelsey Young's reaction

THEY SAW METEORITE IMPACT FLASHES ON THE MOON NO WAY

one of the cameras they're using on board is the Nikon Z9. It has a 45 megapixel resolution (8,256 x 5,504 pixel RAWs) so I guess I'm just gonna lose a whole afternoon just zooming in and staring at those once those get published

they're killing me man

seen in the stream. lasercomm downlink in 7 hours. we are eating so good tonight

Absolute cinema watching that jar of Nutella escape contain behind the backs of the astronauts after packing other things away

I threw together a little timelapse showing the Orion approaching the Moon starting from about 12 hours ago right up until the Earth was eclipsed and the crew went dark

Heaven be with you, Artemis II, see ou on the other side
