I’m honored to be joining an incredible group of Presidential Leadership Scholars united by a common creed that humanity is a cause worth fighting for. @BillClinton @TheBushCenter @LBJLibrary @GeorgeHWBush @PLSprogram

Only one chance in this lifetime…

Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.

I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.

And splashdown!

America is back in the business of sending astronauts to the Moon and bringing them home safely.
Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy did an outstanding job. These talented astronauts inspired the world and represented their space agencies and nations as humanity’s ambassadors to the stars.

This was a test mission, the first crewed flight of SLS and Orion, pushing farther into the unforgiving environment of space than ever before, and it carried real risk. They accepted that risk for all we stood to learn and for the exciting missions that follow, as we return to the lunar surface, build a Moon base, and prepare for what comes next.

And they were not alone. The entire NASA workforce, our commercial and international partners, and the hopes and dreams of people all over the world were with them. The astronauts know it, and you should too. This mission would not have been possible without you.

Congratulations. Artemis II, mission accomplished.

[NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin]

Artemis II has reached its maximum distance from Earth.

On the far side of the Moon, 252,756 miles away, Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy have now traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and now begin their journey home. Before they left, they said they hoped this mission would be forgotten, but it will be remembered as the moment people started to believe that America can once again do the near-impossible and change the world.

Congratulations to this incredible crew and the entire NASA team, our international and commercial partners, but this mission isn’t over until they’re under safe parachutes, splashing down into the Pacific.

It was an extraordinary honor to stand alongside both current and future members, of the bipartisan, For Country Caucus, of veterans in the House of Representatives, on the front lines in Ukraine.

After an intense 72 hours of travel to get to the front lines in Ukraine: we witnessed firsthand the brutal realities of oppression and heard the inspiring voices of those yearning for freedom.

The past two weeks have presented a striking contrast for me. One moment, I found myself on a boat, reveling in life with friends off of the Mediterranean; the next, I was in a foxhole, staring directly at the forces of darkness marching west, intent on dismantling the cornerstones of democracy and freedom. This experience highlighted just how close danger can be and how swiftly life can change for all of us, as it has for the Ukrainian people.

Every day, we fight: for family, friendship, love, freedom, adventure, and prosperity. The Ukrainians are fighting for these values with their blood, sweat, and tears. Yet, their struggle extends beyond Ukraine; they are fighting for all who believe in democracy and freedom. They understand that if they fall, we all fall.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Ukrainian people for their sacrifices and generosity, especially to Congresswoman Sasha Ustinova. I also extend my appreciation to the members of the For Country Caucus for their courage and wisdom in going the extra 5,000 miles to witness these events firsthand.
