President Trump is set to welcome the four astronauts from the Artemis II mission to the White House this Wednesday, as confirmed by The Post.
The crew—comprising commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover, and mission specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen—made history by setting a new record for the furthest distance traveled from Earth during their 10-day lunar flyby. They concluded their mission with a successful splashdown in the Pacific Ocean on April 11.
“In recognition of the groundbreaking success of the Artemis II mission, President Trump is privileged to host this extraordinary crew in the Oval Office tomorrow to honor their incredible accomplishments,” stated White House spokeswoman Liz Huston to The Post.
