These four astronauts are currently on a mission to fly around the Moon—and soon they'll break the record for how far humans have traveled from Earth!

Meet our Artemis II crew 👇 The Artemis II crew sits for their portrait in front of a dark background. Wearing orange suits with patches noting their names, nationalities, and NASA or CSA. From left to right, are Christina Koch, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and Jeremy Hansen. Koch holds a helmet in her hand. \u2063Credit: NASA/Josh Valcarcel\u2063 Reid Wiseman is the mission’s commander, meaning he leads the crew aboard the flight. Wiseman flew previously as a flight engineer aboard the International Space Station for Expedition 41. NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman poses for a portrait in his orange Artemis flight suit with blue trim around the neck and shoulders, and three patches: one with the U.S. flag on his left shoulder, one with his name and a pair of wings on his chest, and one with the NASA \u201Cmeatball.\u201D The background is dark, and the photo is lit to focus on Wiseman's face.\u2063 Credit: NASA/Josh Valcarcel\u2063
