On Saturday, April 4, 2026, on the eve of Easter Sunday, Artemis II crew pilot Capt. Victor Glover gave his thoughts to Mission Control from 180,000 miles away on their trajectory towards the Moon.
“When I read the Bible and I look at all of the amazing things that were done for us who were created, it’s — you have this amazing place, this spaceship,” Glover remarked. “You guys are talking to us because we’re in a spaceship really far from Earth, but you’re on a spaceship called Earth that was created to give us a place to live in the universe, in the cosmos.”
“Maybe the distance we are from you makes you think what we’re doing is special. But we’re the same distance from you, and I’m trying to tell you, just trust me, you are special. In all of this emptiness, this is a whole bunch of nothing, this thing we call the universe. You have this oasis, this beautiful place that we get to exist — together.”
“I think as we go into Easter Sunday thinking about, you know, all the cultures all around the world, whether you celebrate it or not, whether you believe in God or not, this is an opportunity for us to remember where we are, who we are, and that we are the same thing and that we’ve got to get through this together.”
