Newsman: President Donald Trump awarded Congressional Space Medals of Honor to each of the crew members of the Artemis II mission.
Trump, who spoke to the crew while they were in space on their historic lunar fly-by mission and hosted them in the Oval Office after their return to Earth on last Friday awarded the medal in a ceremony at the Johnson Space Center on Aug. 28 at 10 a.m.
The Congressional Space Medal of Honor is a dedicated honor awarded to astronauts by the U.S. President. The medal has been awarded to astronauts since 1978, and has since gone to the likes of Neil Armstrong, James Lovell, and posthumously to the crews of Challenger and Columbia.
