The agency’s next target after the Moon is Mars. NASA Johnson Director Vanessa Wyche also made a statement regarding the flight in question.
“For the first time in over 50 years, these will be the first humans to fly around the Moon. The crew includes the first woman, the first black, and the first Canadian to go on a Moon mission. All four astronauts will represent the best of humanity as they explore for the benefit of all.”
