In times like this it’s nice to see that Americans still stand to applaud astronauts
Even Canadian astronauts.
The Late Show audience is very polite, unlike the rest of America
@@JK_Clark ohh shut up! jk we are not all like that, stereotyping much?
It’s hard to not love them 😂❤
The audience gives a standing ovation pretty much every time nowadays.
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.
Why?
Late night TV is still a thing?
Yes, this was sooo uplifting. I remember watching the challenger explode while in school. It would be great to see a publicized crew, not die.
@@damionrockwell2300 Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to use a lady that looks like Christa McAuliffe .... .....

Christina graduated from my high school. knowing that she came from a small town to become such an important figure, makes my heart full.
She's decent, but fuck that Canadian. We need one more American in there 🇺🇸
Is there a Freemasonic Lodge in your town?
The duality of man.. a youtube commenter and a frigging astronaut.

THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE ONLY - THE ONE AND ONLY SHEPHERD AND SAVIOUR THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AND THE HOLY SPIRIT - AMEN HALLELU-YAH!
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...
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!
Agreed!
Stephen is the ONLY late night shpw host that is capable. He's the only true science geek
Cause great minds think alike! He's not just witty, he's really intelligent/smart. I do love their interactions here and also wish for a post-trip episode :)
@@jellafaith9511 so true!! kimmel would be like “so you film it in a dessert huh”
Like the Apollo 11 press conference, the most cringe thing ever, they looked so uncomfortable, not happy at all
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.
Come make sense on philosophy of going to moon at,least give chance first teholgcian and metaphycist artists and ordinary people not this guys in lader
No Girls Allowed! They are all going to Die! Mark Mee Words for Bringing Her!!! #MGTOW
YOU MEAN IT'S ABOUT TIME WE WENT
What the fuck are you even talking about? Yeah it is amazing When we come together to help people who really need it. Do you know how much we could do with the money they’re wasting on this bullshit mission? Got to have a vagina and a brown person on there. I guess we’re good for another 50 years then?
@@IknowMoreThanYou The earth isn't flat.
Amazing, I will be watching. Jeremy is awesome, typically Canadian guy, he will be there to keep things light. Great sense of humour.
The crew already has great chemistry and I love how they give the rookie a hard time

This interview actually lifted me today, we now have a bunch of *space-faring humans ready to go! As an Engineer, having a physics background as well as being into the cosmos and astrophysics as a child this is so nice to see again at my age of 34. I cannot wait for the crew of Artemis II to the next generation of voyagers. This is genuinely made me so happy to see today.
Earth to Moon is not "interstellar", unless it's the moon of a planet orbiting a star other than Sol.
When I was about sixteen I was laying on the beach in Virginia looking up at the full moon and trying like hell to see a Sparkle from where the eagle was. Binoculars didn't help much. I've often wondered why they didn't go back but when I look at the distance and after having grown up with electronic things always breaking down I became aware of the true Miracle of the Apollo Astronauts making it to the moon and then more miraculously they made it back home. The odds are just so against missions like this. We need a new flameless propulsion method. I beat around in the corners of my mind for a couple of years trying to come up with a magnetic propulsion system. My dad was an engineer and he kind of put the Chill on it. I told him about my proposal and he said it was already invented. I think I'll stay on Earth I would rather move into a cave, rather than go on this trip.
@@ericminch I went to a few concerts back in the seventies and they were described as being stellar. But I guess that's out of context.
Why?
Me and Albert Hoffman have been “interstellar” these guys are just going to the Moon. Relax.
They clearly nailed the crew assignment here... just look at the chemistry these four have together! How can you not be pumped about this!?
@@thanksmisfortuneWhat an original argument with absolutely zero flaws. Why don’t you try fix some of the worlds issues instead of complaining others aren’t? You don’t have to be a government to make a change, make green choices, litter pick in your community, volunteer at a homeless shelter, start a charity to help end slavery. Be the difference, instead of bitching about stuff.
@@thanksmisfortune People who can appreciate their effort care. For every problem you can find, there are a million others sitting. In that way, we should just stop doing anything.

@@Ridethebomb777 The guy I was responding to deleted his comments.
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.
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 💖💖💖💖
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.
I came here l to post the same thing! What a classy answer by Jeremy, to recognize the broader picture of American leadership and not make it about himself or Canada per se. I’ve had the good fortune to hear Jeremy speak at a science conference, and he is an amazing person and top notch ambassador for our country.
All the best to the Artemis II crew!! 🇺🇸🇨🇦 🚀
Glover is a local fellow. He’s my guy.
Artemis is truly an international affair with many member countries. The four main organizations doing Artemis are NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
80% of the Earth's water supply is polluted with toxic microplastics.

@@rh3489 Yup, if there were GOP leadership this team would look very different.
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.
I think it's pretty cool that they did this on purpose as pointed out. I'm sure they could have once again found four white guys just as qualified, but they actually took the time to realize, wait, people that aren't white guys ALSO have the Right Stuff.
I'll bet this crew is just as great as the other fine men we sent to the moon, and honestly, it's nice that the USA has finally realized that being a white man isn't a qualifier for this kind of greatness.
Are you Kidding Mee! She's going to Damn them all!!!
You could never be an Astronaut!!!
What's really interesting is that there is serious consideration of having an all female crew for the first Mars trip. Women on average consume 2200 calories per day, men 2800 per day. That's a huge difference on what could be a year long mission.
People forget that there were Russian women among the first cosmonaut crews. In the US, women pilots were able to pass the same rigorous training that the men went through, but an early decision that astronauts had to be military pilots eliminated women from consideration. The first American astronauts were all tremendous individuals, but it is a shame that it took years to be more inclusive.
I was 12 when Neil and Buzz walked on the moon. I'm 66 now, and just as stoked to see Artemis' crew do the same.
66? hey... How convenient for you 😂
This has got to be one of Colbert's favorite interviews. What an articulate, sharp group of folks.
These 4 Astronauts are charming, funny, witty, and so good looking. Pilot Victor Glover went to college in the town where I live, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. So proud of them and wishing them safe travels. This is exciting.
Cal State brother! That’s cool to hear
3 Astronauts and a Space Maid!
@@randyross5630 Astronette. Please.
@@nestosauce super cool to hear - state colleges are often mocked in comparison to "ivy leagues", but the educators that actually care more about our future than their profits are who are educating there.

As a Canadian so proud Jeremy, Col Hansen is there will be there right along with yours on such a historic mission ,on Artemis .🇨🇦🇺🇲
its a source of pride for us the first non american to get that far is one of us, im so thrilled for jeremy escailly beacuse this is steps that will get us to mars one day 😁when you have only one land bordering neighbour you can only hope for a great relationship like this. lets fight like hell to see some space exploration in our lifetime.
As an Australian I'm happy to see a Canadian as part of the crew and he and the lady will be my favourites haha
*Mexico quietly cries in the corner*
Well done with the interview, Stephen. It was definitely light hearted and good to see that the crew have good chemistry as well!
110% the coolest guests I've seen on late night television. this is awesome to see. so meaningful and inspiring.

My father worked at an aerospace company in the 1960’s on the project Mercury capsules. He worked at McDonnell Douglas at the St. Louis airport. He was involved in creating issues with radio systems for the original seven to solve in the trainer capsule.
He was very humble and private about his work and only talked about it right before he passed away in 2021. Two days prior to his passing I asked him what his best moment was. I expected him to say something about the NASA contract but he responded that a few years later he spent an entire day in the front seat of a F-4 phantom working on wiring issues. His life long dream had been to fly. He had applied to be in the first class at the new Air Force Academy. He was qualified except that his eyesight was only 20/25 without glasses and at least in those first classes that wasn’t good enough. So instead he helped make sure our astronauts came home safe.
Throughout my childhood he would wake me up to watch any launch that was televised. Godspeed dad you can always fly now. Proud of you!
My Dad flew the F-4 phantom! ;) My condolences on your father's passing - he sounds like a wonderful Dad (just like my Dad!).
My dad also worked on projects for space missions as an aerodynamics engineer back in the 60’s. He was humble and private just like your dad. My heart swells with pride and my eyes tears up thinking of the part he played in our space program. May our dads soar proudly in spirit with these amazing astronauts.
Your story of your Dad is so beautiful it really touched my heart. Thank you for sharing it here.
Good luck and Godspeed ❤
5:30 was really amazing statement, 50 years ago we achieved such a huge success
After Canada’s Avro Arrow fighter was cancelled in Feb. 1959, many Canadian aerospace engineers were quickly signed on by NASA. Their contributions to the space race played a big part in getting to the moon ten years later. We’re back, this time with one of us on the mission. Awesome!
He'll be an amazing Astronoot lol
why was it cancelled?
You’re welcome.
The avro arrow story was tragic, it should've been built
It was tragic how the Avro fighter was canceled--and this has led to various theories (including that there was pressure put on Canada by the US gov't--as it was a blow to American pride that the top fighter in the world was not made by a US company). But the silver lining to this was how many of Avro's scientists & engineers were signed on by NASA to assist with the Apollo landing. If I were an aerospace engineer, and if I had to choose between building a plane that's gonna drop bombs on people or going to the moon, I'll take the moon every time. George, Sudbury, Canada.
Literally the Fantastic Four.
I immediately thought the same thing, surprised not more people are talking about that
If they return and find that their experience in space altered their DNA and she starts going invisible, the brain next to her starts stretching, the black pilot crowd-hyper bursts into flames and the Canadian turns into a rock, then yeah.
Marvel definitely gonna including this mission into their marketing
Crazy amount of F-18 stick time in this crew

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.
Not nearly diverse enough. Where are the Gay, Trans and Otherkin astronauts???

@@LivvyAlexW Excellent! He seems like a cool guy. I hope nothing happens to interfere with the mission and everything goes according to plan.
Probably the most exciting development I can remember in my lifetime. Awesome to see the human spirit of exploration is making a comeback!
This interview will be remembered forever. Fun to watch, good luck. April 14 2023.
My I’m 36 and my grandma is 85. Over the years she has mentioned Apollo and how everyone watched as they went to the moon originally. I have my fingers crossed that I get to watch Artemis land on the moon with her!
Hate to tell you, but they won't be landing on the moon with her.
I read an article about this mission. They won't be landing or orbiting the moon just doing a fly by, makes no sense. Why didn't they mention this on the show???
Because the moon landings were FAKED over 50 years ago.
They're actually flying around the moon, not landing on it unfortunately.
@@ericminch 🎉🥳
You see how misinformed you are??? They are not landing on the moon.
I'm really excited, and humbled that something like this could happen in my lifetime. Good luck and Godspeed, star riders--we'll all be watching, and waiting to drink a toast to your return.
I really hope they are okay. This crap is literally the hardest thing humankind can do... May they find nothing but success!
I saw Neil Armstrong. Would love to see this as well.
Why?
Honestly, it's pretty pathetic that it's taken us this long to send people to the moon again. We took our sweet time. And we could have done it again quite easily a lot sooner than this. Too busy funding wars, BS politics, and unnecessary technological distractions on Earth. My only reaction to this is "IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME."
@@biggtrux why, because humans should do more than cause wars !
One of the few times national news and media actually put people in real life who deserve this platform and are pushing human beings to become a better civilization. Thank you for Putting out this content :)
What a treat to see these 4 folks on with Stephen. Hope they’re journey goes well!
Jeremy Hansen doin’ Canada 🇨🇦 proud. Great interview. Such a feel good moment in a world with not enough of them!
I love that once they started coming out of their "haha we're in front of a live audience😬" nerves, you can really tell they're good friends. The way they play off each other and make each other laugh is delightful. Super excited to watch their mission :)
Aliens will probe them real good 😂
I love this! Made me smile so big! You can tell Stephen was so proud to have them!
NASA, SpaceX, space exploration in general needs to go to mainstream again, what everybody in that industry have achieved so far and all the plans and engineering that comes with it, the hard work, brilliant minds, everything is so underrated man.. happy to see them on the show
These 4 simply make me proud to just be human. They represent the smartest and strongest as they spearhead the space race. I can't wait to hear more later, as I would loosely quote: One step for them, one leap for us.
Agreed
Frank Borman lives here in Billings. Great guy! At 95, he is the oldest living astronaut. He commanded Apollo 8, the first manned mission around the moon. It's great to see it happening again. So much technology can be attributed to our space program. Good job on the interview. It will be something that I can discuss with Commander Borman.
Frank Borman and Jim Lovell are amazing heros! Tell Mr. Borman he is admired and well remembered by Americans!
People are going to look back on this with the same enthusiasm we look back at Interviews with the Apollo Astronauts. Awesome.
I am so excited. This was a fantastic interview. These astronauts are already heros, and they now have their own place in the history of space travel.
People forget that America needed a hand with the Space Shuttle, and Canada was kind enough to give them a whole arm.
Well said!
And the Canadarm2 Remote Manipulator System on ISS!
👏👏👏👏👏😃 🇨🇦
(well for an international space endeavor in that case!)🤓👍
And Australia broadcasted it
I see what you did there.
This was an absolute joy to watch. Honestly, my eyes got a little misty. I don't know how I'll be when Humanity steps on the moon again. My Dad saw it happen when he was 10 years old in 1969 and I really want to make sure that I'm with him so we can watch together as it happens again.
again lol. C'mon humanity get it in gear.
Scheduled for december 2025, Artemis III
They are NOT landing on the Moon!!which is kind of a shame as the determined conspiracy brigade will mutter "I bet they never did..." 🤣
My gradeschool years were in the 80's and I grew up learning about Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin . My science teacher was talking about it and showing us videos (in betamax) like it happened yesterday. Nice to know this generation will learn new names. About time.
they arent landing on the moon..just a lunar flyby.. Its a deceiving mission
Thank you for having them on! This mission is so exciting!
these guys have such chemistry together if going to the Moon doesn't work out for them, i would still definitely watch a podcast of them
They have such good vibes together, cracking each other up with jokes, what a wholesome crew!

Never believed astronauts could be so cool, all the best team🎉
President Kennedy, Sept. 20, 1963, at the UN General Assembly: "Why, therefore, should man's first flight to the moon be a matter of national competition? Why should the United States and the Soviet Union, in preparing for such expeditions, become involved in immense duplications of research, construction, and expenditure? Surely we should explore whether the scientists and astronauts of our two countries--indeed of all the world--cannot work together in the conquest of space, sending someday in this decade to the moon not the representatives of a single nation, but the representatives of all of our countries."

Yeah, why have more than one car or airplane manufacturing company?
@@JK_Clark not the same thing
@@TechRock2020 True, no Cuban Missile Crises between auto and air manufacturers.
While the first astronauts to the moon were all American, the engineers, scientists, etc working to make it happen were from other countries, as well as the US. Which was Kennedy's hope/desire, it seems.
Much love and respect from a family of everyday astronauts from Aus. Safe travels and have an amazing mission.
4 astronauts, one who's a woman, and one whose name is Reid. This feels like another reboot of The Fantastic Four ;-) Kidding aside, this is amazing! I grew up watching and reading about the Space Shuttle launches and the earlier missions that I wasn't alive for, and to have this start again in my lifetime is just the coolest.
I am very excited about the mission. May everything go well.

What a great looking, confident, intelligent, well spoken group of people! I’m so proud of them!
Yes, intelligence on TV, it's been lacking for a long while.
Did you know that commissioned officers in the US, until a year ago, were required to provide 8x10 photos in their personnel jackets? Additionally, US service academy candidates are required to provide 8x10 photos with their applications for admission.
@@markbeames7852 I didn’t know that. Lol, fortunately good looks are not prerequisite, since I know quite a few ugly officers!
@@stephaniefain1863 good looks (admittedly subjective) are for the Service Academy admission. Although that said, they can't hurt when a promotion board is convened and one's personnel jacket is passed around. 😉
@@markbeames7852 lol, we may have a different idea about my “ good looking” comment, but I admit both are true, they are certainly cute. What I meant was, great looking uniforms, strait backs, confidence, easy smiles, a general pleasing neatness, and obvious enthusiasm.
Incredible interview!!! Uplifting edutainment!!
Astronauts are precious for humanity.
So now Colbert has interviewed astronauts from two different lunar programs:
- Buzz Aldrin of Apollo 11.
- Christina Koch, Victor Glover, Jeremy Hansen and Reid Wiseman of Artemis II.
I didn't know he interviewed buzz aldrin 93 now bless him, hell be watching Artemis start the next space journey with pride I hope.
The Captain especially the ending of this segment was laughing so hard. lol He seems like a great guy. All of them seem great.
This is why I love Stephen Colbert. Yes he interviews a lot of celebrities just like other talk shows, but he also brings on scientists and astronauts and people who stand out in fields other than showbiz to give viewers a special look into what's happening around the world.
Surely there's an answer waiting for you in what you have written above?
I love this crew! psyched for this mission
