Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen to fly to the moon on NASA’s Artemis II mission in March 2026, becoming the first Canadian in space since 2001.
Jeremy Hansen, a 50-year-old from Ingersoll, Ontario, is set to become the first Canadian in space since 2001 and the first Canadian to travel to the moon aboard NASA’s Artemis II mission, scheduled for early March 2026.
The mission marks the first crewed journey beyond low Earth orbit in 54 years, delayed briefly due to a liquid hydrogen leak.
Inspired as a child by Neil Armstrong’s moon landing, Hansen pursued a path in aviation and space, earning pilot licenses by 17, attending Royal Military College, and becoming a CF-18 pilot before joining NASA in 2009.
His parents reflect on his lifelong dedication, humility, and the realization of a dream rooted in a small-town childhood.
