NASA's Artemis 2 mission: Astronauts named, history seen, and prayers emphasized.

Space Center Houston, the visitors' hub for NASA's Johnson Space Center, is filled with space history, including a flown Mercury program capsule, the Gemini 5 spacecraft, and Apollo 17's command module. The museum also features a moon rock display, a lunar module test vehicle, and a lunar roving vehicle trainer. The shuttle carrier aircraft, which used to ferry the spacecraft between servicing sites on Earth, is also on display. The Artemis program exhibit includes a ginormous moon model and a picture of Jessica Watkins, the first Black woman astronaut to complete a long-duration mission. The Artemis 2 crew, which will fly around the moon no sooner than November 2024, was announced on April 3.
