And one of them is truly moving.(Subtitles generated with AI from the editing app)During a live broadcast from the Orion spacecraft, Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen told mission control that the Artemis II crew wanted to pay tribute to their mission by giving names to two relatively new craters on the Moon.The astronauts proposed naming one crater after their Orion capsule, called Integrity."If you were to look at Orientale on the far side and then draw a line straight up to Ohm on the far side, relatively in the middle is an unnamed crater, and we would like to suggest it be called Integrity""There’s a feature in a really neat place on the moon, and it is on the near side-far side boundary. In fact, it’s just on the near side of that boundary, and so at certain times of the moon transits around Earth, we will be able to see this from Earth"."And the second one is especially meaningful for this crew. (...) We lost a loved one, her name was Carroll, the spouse of Reed and the mother of Katie and Ellie. If you want to find this spot, look at Glushko; it’s just to the northwest of that, at the same latitude as home. It’s a bright spot on the Moon, and we would like to call it Carroll"#NASA #Astronauts #moon #artemis #artemis2 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWzQEJ9Di-c/?igsh=ODRnNWprNTl6Z3A1
