The four NASA astronauts making their way as a part of the historic Artemis II moon mission have given their first interview from the spacecraft.
Astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut Jeremy Hansen revealed incredible details about their lives on Orion.
The team discussed how they sleep in space, the shocking twist on launch day, and the spectacular moment that made them pause amid their race to the moon.
Speaking to ABC, Wiseman explained the crew had been surviving on just two short naps, joking that ‘sleeping in space is a comical thing.’
‘Christina has been sleeping heads down in the middle of the vehicle, kind of like a bat suspended from our docking tunnel,’ Wiseman said.
‘Victor has a nice little nook wedged in there. And then Jeremy has been stretched out on seat one, and I’ve been sleeping under the displays, just in case anything goes wrong,’ he added.
