A few days ago, a mission began that will go down in history. Human beings have always been curious, curious to understand and to answer some of their questions, but above all to understand what lies outside of our home, our planet Earth. Thanks to technological avant garde and the importance we are increasingly giving to aerospace development, it was possible to design and carry out a mission that led people to become those who have traveled the furthest possible distance from Earth.
There are four people who traveled more than 1,030,000 kilometers away from Earth, performing a loop around the far side of the moon. Reid Wiseman (Commander), Victor Glover (Pilot), Christina Koch (Mission Specialist), and Jeremy Hansen (Mission Specialist) are their names, which will be written in history books. The mission began on April 1, 2026, and lasted 10 days aboard the Space Launch System (SLS), one of the largest space rockets ever built by humanity. The main objective of the expedition is to test the safety of this rocket to see its behavior with people inside the spacecraft.
These are moments that unite humanity, as on the day of the launch, a large part of the population was connected to see the long awaited moment; there are many children who dream of becoming astronauts who watched and waited for the countdown with anxiety. The human aspect we can take from this experience is given both by the support, especially from the younger generations on social media, as can be seen from all the edits, videos, and support made regarding this event, but also by the emotional choice of one of the crew to name a newly discovered crater on the moon after his late wife, something that moved many people. This, besides being an extremely important scientific event, is above all an event that unites all of humanity, reminding us that we are all in the same situation, and it is precisely these moments that unite us as human beings.
