As we prepare to go out of radio communication,
we're still going to feel your love from Earth.
And to all of you down there on Earth and around Earth, we love you from the moon.
That is not AI.
That was the moment Artemis 2 crew member Victor Glover spoke with mission control right before
NASA temporarily and expectedly lost control with the spacecraft as it went behind the moon.
Retired NASA astronaut Cady Coleman joins us now.
She flew two space shuttle missions, one of them including a 6-month stay at the ISS.
Um I had asked you in the commercial break, you have children.
Do you think What do you think we will see in their lifetimes?
I think they will certainly see people settled on the moon, people working on the moon, understanding and do and doing a lot of the practicing that we need to do in order to go to Mars.
And I think we'll see people going to Mars.
And you think that there will be buy-in from the government, from the public for further exploration?
I don't think you could stop people. And And you mentioned the government, but you know, even back in the '60s it's it there's companies that are actually, you know, building to the government requirements. And now things are organized differently, but it's still with the commercial companies, they are they are going.
And And I think this mission showed us just what can be done by people.
I wanted to go back to something that Victor said there in the where he said,
you know, sending we're sending our love um to everyone on Earth and people everyone on on the Earth and around it.
And so he was actually also calling out to all the people living in space stations right now.
Which is an American space station and a Chinese space station.
And I love that he he thought he’s he thinks that way.
He doesn't flinch. He just he thinks that way and he speaks that way.
And you pick up on the subtleties to help us understand all of it.
Do you think that without Artemis of it. Do you think that without Artemis 2 we would have those future missions?
When you say they can't stop us, did Artemis Was Artemis 2 a huge step in that direction?
>> Absolutely.
In that it is
Going going I I've been I'm retired from NASA now, but when I go back, there's something that is just clear in a in a visceral way that this is an organization that knows that they will be creating the situation where people are going to the moon and then going there not just to go around, but to stay, right? And it's just it's a culture and it will happen no matter what.
Artemis 2 was the first step.
And now it's almost like a relay race where
Artemis 2 was the the first person out and there is someone now, you know, someone a whole team of people getting Artemis 3 ready.
And they are ready to go on the start line with their hand back there.
And it's a very exciting time.
Well, Cady Coleman, it has been a privilege to get to see some of this through your eyes.
Thank you so much for your expertise.
And a programming note, we will have special coverage of the Artemis 2 splashdown Friday night right here on CBS News 24/7.
