Keith’s note: according to NASA Artemis II crew will receive the Congressional Space Medal of Honor. Jared Isaacman sent this note to all of NASA this afternoon: “NASA Team,
As you may have already seen, next week the President of the United States will visit Johnson Space Center to award the Congressional Space Medal of Honor to the Artemis II crew. I think we can all agree there were no greater ambassadors to the stars than Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy. From selection through splashdown, they represented NASA and their nations with extraordinary professionalism and heart. They showed the world the Moon again and the impact will be felt for generations. I do believe the crew would say this recognition belongs to every one of you as much as it does to them. It takes an army of determined talent to carry out a mission like Artemis II, and you all performed masterfully.
I am grateful for every moment I get to work alongside you.
Jared”
