Jeremy Hansen, Canadian Astronaut, NASA mission Artemis II, April, 2026
quote:
During the interview in January in Houston he said that to prepare for Artemis II he had gone on a vision quest with a Canadian Indigenous elder to grapple with a question: How can I possibly be happy when people are dying and suffering?
He finally came to an answer: “All you have to do is wake up every day and just use your energy for good.”
“You can’t fix all the problems in the world, but you can influence the little bit around you, and that’s just a simple recipe for allowing yourself to feel that joy,” Mr. Hansen said.
