Crater on far side of moon named 'Carroll' in honor of Artemis II astronaut's late wife

Carroll, now a bright spot on our Moon, because four people, who traveled farther from Earth than any human has ever been in the 4.5-billion-year history of our planet, loved someone so much, they carried her the whole way there.

Moments after breaking Apollo 13’s record, the astronauts asked permission to name two fresh lunar craters already observed. They proposed Integrity, their capsule’s name, and Carroll in honor of commander Reid Wiseman’s wife who died of cancer in 2020. Wiseman wept as fellow astronaut Jeremy Hansen put in the request to Mission Control, and all four astronauts embraced in tears. #artemisII #moon #space #exploration #astronauts #apollo13
