    Houston has been part of every step humans have taken toward the Moon. 🌕 International Moon Day celebrates the achievements that began with Apollo and continue through Artemis. For more than 50 years, Johnson Space Center has trained astronauts, built mission operations, and

Schmitt is photographed seated in the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV) at Station 9 (Van Serg Crater) during the third Apollo 17 extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Taurus-Littrow landing site. This photograph was taken by astronaut Eugene A. Cernan, commander. Schmitt, lunar module pilot, and Cernan explored the moon while astronaut Ronald E. Evans, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules in lunar orbit. Credit: NASA

    The day the Moon became a place humans could walk. On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 marked humanity’s first steps on the lunar surface marking a turning point in science, engineering, and global cooperation. As we celebrate this historic moment, we also look ahead to the Artemis

    Fifty years ago, two nations launched a mission that proved space could bring the world together. On July 15, 1975, NASA launched the Apollo spacecraft for the Apollo‑Soyuz Test Project — the first international human spaceflight mission. The Apollo and Soyuz crews carried out

Aboard the Apollo spacecraft were astronauts Thomas P. Stafford, Vance D. Brand and Donald K. (Deke) Slayton. Credit: NASA

    With the @Space_Station Expedition 74 mission soon coming to an end, we realized we had been a bit remiss in capturing portraits of our full crew. It has been an honor and a privilege (and yes, A LOT of fun!) serving with these exceptional humans for the past 5 months. So many
