Of everything we learn, communication just might be the most important.

We finished up 2023 training with teams from on how @nasaartemis crews will safely leave the Orion spacecraft in case of an emergency, which can mean understanding each other even through a sealed helmet when you’ve unplugged from the headsets. It also means being ready to learn new ways to do it better every time.

Love this team and can’t wait to get back to it in 2024!

Wonderful to celebrate Space and Earth science as well as our shared work in human space flight in my former stomping grounds!

To the Moon, by way of Goddard!

Today, the @NASAArtemis II astronauts visited Goddard, met employees and answered questions about their experience. @Astro_Christina spoke about her time as an engineer at Goddard and preparing to go to the Moon.
The four astronauts in NASA's Artemis II crew, sitting in chairs on a stage. All four wear deep blue flight suits with brightly colored patches on the chest and arms indicating their names, missions, and NASA or Canadian Space Agency affiliation. NASA astronaut Victor Glover, a man with very short dark hair, gestures with one hand as he speaks to an audience member off screen. To his right and closer to the camera, CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen and NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman, both men with short brown hair, look toward him. To his left, NASA astronaut Christina Koch, a woman with short, curly dark hair, also looks on. Behind them are dark blue and red curtains, and part of a projector screen is visible on the right.
