I hosted @NASAAdmin at @the_cosmosphere in Kansas last week as Artemis II orbited the moon and made history for traveling deeper into space than ever before, breaking the record set by Apollo 13 more than 50 years ago.
@the_cosmosphere is a unique place with a special mission: honoring the legacy of America’s pioneers in space & inspiring the next generation to pursue innovation, exploration and opportunity. I’m grateful to Administrator Isaacman for joining me & for his dedication to making certain America is first in space.
