Questions About This Episode

What is Artemis II: A Celebration of Heroes, With The Artemis II Astronauts, Ron Howard, and Bill Nye about?

A special edition of CBS Mornings. We're celebrating some real-life heroes this morning here in studio, which is filled with students here to get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to speak with The Artemis II astronauts in person! We were all watching when the Artemis Two astronauts launched into space. But someone else caught our eye during the coverage. Five-year-old aspiring astronaut, Jack and his parents traveled to Florida so he could watch the historic launch in person. Rob Marciano met him in the crowd that day and gave him the nickname "Commander Jack." And we've got a little surprise for him. More than 50 years before artemis, the three member crew of apollo 13 were the humans who had traveled the farthest from earth. The dramatic true story of their aborted 1970 lunar mission was shown in the Academy award-winning movie "Apollo 13." We talk to the man who brought us that film and is a champion of all things space, Director Ron Howard! Bill Nye The Science Guy has turned our studio into a rocket science lab with some experiments to bring the Artemis II mission to life. We end off the special with some final thoughts on Artemis II's historic mission for today's talk of the table with Ron Howard.
