    In times like this it’s nice to see that Americans still stand to applaud astronauts
  • @rui5421
    its just incredible to see a crew on late night TV being appreciated for what they're going to attempt. the world is overdue for this.
  • Christina graduated from my high school. knowing that she came from a small town to become such an important figure, makes my heart full.
  • @gecko-sb1kp
    It hasn't really sunk in yet but the thought of looking up at a full moon and knowing that our people are finally there again makes me happy. There has been such a huge gap between Apollo and Artemis...
  • You know despite all the chaos happening in this country and around the world, it's wonderful to realize all the amazing things we can do if we come together. The Artemis program is amazing, it's about time we returned.
  • @cutenekko
    I hope The Late Show gets them back on the show when they return post trip. Stephen has great chemistry with this crew. Superb interview!
  • Amazing, I will be watching. Jeremy is awesome, typically Canadian guy, he will be there to keep things light. Great sense of humour.
  • @guardian1045
    The crew already has great chemistry and I love how they give the rookie a hard time
  • @thebeenu
    How inspiring! Especially to hear a Canadian speak so reverently and eloquently about a collaborative American vision of a global team for the greatest of human endeavors.
  • @JH-we7xf
    Who else got chills when he said "...flying farther than any human ever has."? What an amazing event we are going to witness!
  • These are the types of human beings we need to look up to, admire and try to imitate once again. They are the real thing. This is what we all need in order to get out of the darkness we find ourselves in at this moment.
  • 110% the coolest guests I've seen on late night television. this is awesome to see. so meaningful and inspiring.
  • @derick-smith
    They clearly nailed the crew assignment here... just look at the chemistry these four have together! How can you not be pumped about this!?
  • @ShavaNerad
    I was born in the late 50s and all through the 60s I wanted to be an astronaut. I was told as a girl I couldn't be an astronaut, because it was too dangerous for girls. I'm so glad we've grown up a bit as a culture.
  • After seeing so much turmoil and disturbing events on the national and international stage for so long, it is so refreshing to see us reach back up to the stars with such amazing and wonderful people. Watching them restores my faith in humanity 💖💖💖💖
  • @jewellllll
    This team has a great sense of humor. I love the diversity, too. Wish them the best. Astronauts are always going to be heroes in my book.
  • @oscopin74
    I'm glad a Canadian 🇨🇦 is going with us. We couldn't ask for a better neighbor. 🇺🇲🇨🇦
  • Well done with the interview, Stephen. It was definitely light hearted and good to see that the crew have good chemistry as well!
