A few months after Artemis II’s lunar flyby, another Canadian astronaut is preparing for a mission in space.
Joshua Kutryk from Fort Saskatchewan, Alta., is one of four members assigned to NASA’s SpaceX Crew 13 mission.
The crew will spend six months at the International Space Station.
The mission includes a Canadian-led study on how space travel and microgravity can affect human health.
