阿尔忒弥斯宇航员杰里米·汉森将机组人员近期返回地球的经历描述为“你体验过的最棒过山车”。
“着陆时,各种景象、各种感受扑面而来,”汉森周五在“CBS早间节目”的“阿尔忒弥斯二号:英雄赞歌”市民座谈会上说道。
“你第一眼看到的是等离子体,色彩逐渐显现。窗外升腾起一团火球,”他说,“那是红色的,不断下坠。接着变成蓝色和绿色,就像有人在焊接,闪着光。”
他面向台下的学生群体——下一代太空探索者,形容自己在飞行中被“甩来甩去”,被重力加速度死死按在座椅上。
“一切都太令人兴奋了,”他补充说,在任务接近尾声时,他和任务专家克里斯蒂娜·科奇互相碰了拳。
“太震撼了。我满心欢喜,简直喜出望外,”科奇在谈及溅落时的感受时说道。

汉森与科奇,加上指令长里德·怀斯曼和飞行员维克多·格洛弗,于4月10日完成了开创性的绕月飞行后返回地球,他们的猎户座飞船在圣地亚哥附近太平洋海域溅落,为这次历史性任务画上了圆满句号。
机组人员周五做客“CBS早间节目”,参与特别直播市民座谈会,回答学生们的提问。他们还见到了来自亚特兰大的5岁准宇航员杰克——这名男孩因观看发射时的热情表现走红网络,宇航员们还为他送上了特别礼物。
《阿波罗13号》的获奖导演朗·霍华德也出席了座谈会,他听宇航员讲述了这部电影如何帮助对方做好任务准备。行星学会首席大使、“科学小子”比尔·奈则现场演示了多个科学实验,让任务细节更加生动易懂。
机组人员透露着陆后分享花生M&M巧克力豆
怀斯曼讲述了溅落后等待救援人员赶来时,机组人员增进情谊的故事。
“我们在太平洋溅落后,等待救援部队打开舱门,这时克里斯蒂娜从航天服口袋里掏出东西说:‘我有花生M&M巧克力豆,有人要吗?’”怀斯曼说,“我们靠在飞船侧壁上,刚从月球回来,吃着花生M&M巧克力豆,开心极了。”
关于重力最爱的事
一名18岁名叫莱维的学生问宇航员:“你们在太空时错过了重力,那你们最怀念重力带来的哪件事?”
任务专家汉森一时想不到答案。“说实话,没什么可怀念的。我在微重力环境下度过了最棒的时光,”他说。
“如果有机会体验微重力,你一定要去试试。太有意思了,”不过他补充道,这会让做家务、上厕所这类事情变得更具挑战性。
“这些事在微重力环境下确实难一点,但绝对值得,”他说。
座谈会期间,科奇还描述了在太空待了一周多后重新适应重力的感受。
“你的身体不太习惯往常的定向方式,因为它已经适应了无重力环境下的姿态调整,”她说,“我们需要花点时间重新学会走路,找回平衡感,但这次情况不算太糟。我们只离开了9天。”
在这次近70万英里的航程中,宇航员们创下了人类离地球最远飞行纪录,成为首批用肉眼看到月球背面部分区域的人类。他们还在深空见证了一次日食:月球运行在猎户座飞船和太阳之间,在月球地平线周围形成了一层朦胧的光晕。
他们的经历被定格在多张震撼的照片中。
他们不得不做出的最艰难抉择
一名13岁名叫皮亚的学生问道:“你们在太空中执行任务时,不得不做出的最艰难决定是什么?”
机组人员表示,那是一个选择不执行某项操作的决定。
怀斯曼详细讲述了机组人员在午夜被警报惊醒的惊魂时刻——警报名为“运行箱警告”,显示飞船燃料泄漏。
“这是人类首次驾驶这艘飞船。我们当时在测试所有系统,其中一项我们没料到会测试的是我们的警戒与警告系统,”怀斯曼回忆道,“午夜时分,我们收到了一条非常——非常严重且重要的警报,显示我们的飞船有燃料泄漏。”
“我们有必须执行的程序,而且必须立刻执行。想象一下,我们四个人都在睡觉,漂浮在睡袋里。警报响起,我醒过来,看着显示屏,心想‘我觉得这是运行箱警告’。所有人瞬间都清醒了。”
怀斯曼说,机组人员立刻根据训练内容展开工作。
“杰里米睡在控制系统前方,他醒过来,爬到我左侧的控制台下方,说‘我们需要立刻执行应急响应程序’。他开始配置推进剂系统,准备关闭燃料系统,以留存飞船内剩余的燃料。”
他继续说道:“我们看着警报时断时续,这很反常。正常情况下警报会一直亮着。我们快速商议后决定暂停,不执行这些程序,因为一旦执行,我们会关闭整个燃料系统。”
“我们没那么做!”他说。
“团队合作就是一切”
17岁的莉齐问道:“团队合作在阿尔忒弥斯二号这类任务的成功中发挥了怎样的作用?”
科奇表示,任务真正的英雄不是她和其他三名宇航员,而是他们在任务控制中心的队友,以及多年来为任务付出努力的所有地面工作人员。
“我想说,团队合作是我们工作的核心。不仅在载人航天领域如此,可能在你参与的任何一项事业中都是如此,”科奇说,“团队合作就是一切。我们在宇宙中见证最壮观的景象时,它们让我们感到谦卑,让我们意识到,没有彼此,我们什么都不是。”
5岁准宇航员获赠航天服
来自亚特兰大的5岁准宇航员杰克因在任务期间观看发射时的热情表现走红网络,他也出席了座谈会,表示“在佛罗里达现场观看阿尔忒弥斯发射‘太有意思了’”。
他获赠了一套航天服,科奇感谢他到场观看发射。她说这套航天服与宇航员在猎户座飞船上穿着的款式一致。
“上面写着‘NASA!’”杰克说。

《阿波罗13号》导演朗·霍华德向宇航员提问
《阿波罗13号》导演朗·霍华德表示,他很好奇宇航员的登月经历与他们在国际空间站的长期驻留有何不同。

曾在2019年至2020年间在轨道停留11个月、创下女性宇航员驻留太空纪录的科奇表示,尽管国际空间站任务已经持续了20多年,但阿尔忒弥斯团队“必须边执行边摸索”。
“我们必须与工程师携手工作。我们不只是接受训练,我们本身就是团队的一部分。这种状态贯穿了整个任务,”她说。
怀斯曼表示,这次任务的紧张程度比国际空间站任务更甚。
汉森也分享了《阿波罗13号》电影对他的重要意义,称这部电影“多次指引”着他,他在参加宇航员选拔面试前还重温了这部影片——“只是为了让自己沉浸在那种‘我们绝不会失败’的氛围中”。
“不是说我们永远不会失败,而是我们不会就此止步,”他说,“我们会一次次失败,但失败后我们不会停下脚步。作为一个团队,这就是我们凝聚在一起的原因:‘嘿,我们会一起挺过去。我们会齐心协力,完成任务。’”
本次座谈会将于周五美国东部/太平洋时间7:30在CBS的“CBS早间节目”以及派拉蒙+平台播出。或于周五晚些时候通过CBSNews.com、CBS新闻YouTube频道和派拉蒙+平台点播观看。

Artemis astronaut Jeremy Hansen described the crew’s recent return to Earth as “the best roller coaster ride you’ve ever been on.”
“For the landing, it’s like all the sights, all the feels,” Hansen said Friday at a “CBS Mornings” town hall, “Artemis II: A Celebration of Heroes.”
“The first thing you see is like plasma, the colors starting to show up. This fireball building outside the windows,” he said. “It was red, and it was coming down. And then it was like blue and green. It was like somebody was welding, like flashing.”
Speaking to an audience of students — the next generation of space explorers — he described getting “thrashed around” and being pushed to the seat with G-forces.
“It’s just all really exhilarating,” he said, adding that he and mission specialist Christina Koch fist-bumped each other during the end of their journey.
“It was phenomenal. I was completely overcome with just elation. I was overjoyed,” Koch said, describing her feelings at splashdown.

Hansen and Koch, along with commander Reid Wiseman and pilot Victor Glover, returned from their trailblazing trip around the moon on April 10, when their Orion capsule splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego — an epic ending to their historic mission.
The crew joined “CBS Mornings” on Friday for a special live town hall to take questions from students. They also got to meet Jack, a 5-year-old aspiring astronaut from Atlanta who went viral for his enthusiasm watching the launch, and presented him with a special gift.
Award-winning director of “Apollo 13,” Ron Howard, joined the town hall and heard a story from one of the astronauts about how that movie helped him prepare. And Bill Nye, “The Science Guy,” who is chief ambassador of The Planetary Society, demonstrated some science experiments to bring the mission to life.
Crew says they shared peanut M&Ms after landing
Wiseman told a story about the crew bonding after splashdown while waiting for the crews to come pick them up.
“When we landed, we splashed down into the Pacific Ocean, waiting for the rescue forces to come open the hatch, and Christina, out of her spacesuit pocket, goes, ‘I got some peanut M&Ms, anybody want some?’” Wiseman said. “And so we’re leaning against the side of the spacecraft, just come back from the moon, eating peanut M&Ms; we were happy.”
Favorite thing about gravity
An 18-year-old student named Levi asked the astronauts, “What is your favorite thing about gravity that you missed while you were up there?”
Mission specialist Hansen couldn’t think of a thing. “Really, nothing. I just had the most amazing time in microgravity,” he said.
“If you get the chance to experience microgravity, you have to do it. It’s so much fun,” though he added that it makes some things, like doing chores or going to the restroom, a little more challenging.
“All that stuff’s a little harder in microgravity, but it is just so worth it,” he said.
At another point in the town hall, Koch described what it was like getting used to gravity again after more than a week in space.
“Your body isn’t quite used to orienting the way it usually does, because it got used to orienting without gravity,” she said. “It takes us a little while to get used to walking again, and get our balance, but it wasn’t too bad this time. We were only away for nine days.”
During their voyage spanning nearly 700,000 miles, the astronauts traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and became the first humans to see some parts of the moon’s far side with the naked eye. They viewed a solar eclipse in deep space when the moon moved between the Orion and the sun, creating a ghostly glow all the way around the lunar horizon.
Their experiences were captured in stunning images.
Toughest decisions they had to make
A 13-year-old named Piya asked: “What’s the toughest decision you had to make in space, on the mission?”
The crew said it was a decision to not do something.
Wiseman detailed the scary moment when the crew was woken up in the middle of the night to an alarm, called a “run box warning,” showing fuel was leaking from the spacecraft.
“This is the first time humans have flown this spaceship. We were testing out everything. And one of the things that we didn’t know we were testing out was our caution and warning system,” Wiseman recalled. “In the middle of the night, we had a warning come on that was a very — it was a very dramatic and important warning, which kind of gave us indications that fuel was leaking out of our spacecraft.”
“We have procedures that we must execute and we must execute them right now. So imagine all four of us are asleep. We’re floating in our sleeping bags. And we get this alarm. I wake up, and I’m looking at the display, and I’m like, ‘I think that’s a run box warning.’ And all of a sudden that got everyone’s attention immediately.”
Wiseman said the crew immediately went to work based on their training.
“Jeremy was asleep in front of the control system. And he woke up, came underneath the controls to my left, and he’s like, ‘We need to be executing emergency response right now.’ He started to configure the propellant system for shutting down the fuel system so we could preserve the fuel that we had in the spacecraft.”
He continued, “As we were watching this alarm was coming and going, coming and going, which is unusual. Normally it would stay lit the whole time. We talked through this very rapidly and decided we would hold and not execute these procedures, because if we did it would shut down our entire fuel system.”
“We didn’t do it!” he said.
“Teamwork is 100% everything”
17-year-old Lizzy asked, “How does teamwork play a role in the success of a mission like Artemis II?”
Koch said the real heroes of the mission are not her and the three other astronauts, but their teammates in mission control and others working on the ground for years to make it happen.
“Well, I would say that teamwork is the epitome of what we do. Not only in human spaceflight but probably every endeavor you take on,” Koch said. “Teamwork is 100% everything. We learned when we saw the most amazing things in the universe, they humbled us. They made us realize that we are nothing without each other.”
5-year-old aspiring astronaut presented with spacesuit
Jack, a 5-year-old aspiring astronaut from Atlanta who went viral for his enthusiasm during the mission, joined the town hall and said “it was fun” watching the Artemis launch in person in Florida.
He was presented with a spacesuit and Koch thanked him for being at the launch. She said the spacesuit matches the ones that the astronauts wore on Orion.
“It says ‘NASA!’” Jack said.

“Apollo 13” director Ron Howard has question for astronauts
“Apollo 13” director Ron Howard said he was curious how the astronauts’ experience going to the moon compared to their longer stays aboard the International Space Station.

Koch — who spent 11 months in orbit in 2019-20, the record for a female astronaut — said that while the space station missions have been ongoing for over two decades, the Artemis team “had to figure it out as we went.”
“We got to work hand-in-hand with the engineers. We weren’t just getting trained, we were actually a part of the team. And that continued right through the whole thing,” she said.
Wiseman said the experience was more intense than being on the International Space Station.
Hansen also shared a story about how important the “Apollo 13” film has been to him, saying it’s “guided” him “so many times” and that he watched it again before his interviews to be selected as an astronaut — “just to kind of immerse myself back in that culture that we, you know, won’t fail.”
“It’s not that we never fail, it’s that we don’t stop there,” he said. “We fail over and over again, but we don’t stop when we fail. And as a team, that’s what brings us together is like, ‘hey, we will get through this together. We will lean in and get this done.’”
The town hall airs at 7:30a ET/PT Friday on “CBS Mornings” on CBS and Paramount+. Or watch it on demand later Friday on CBSNews.com, the CBS News YouTube channel and Paramount+.
