From February 2 to 16, 2026*, from 9 am to 5 pm, join the Canada Aviation and Space Museum as we mark Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen’s historic journey to the Moon on the Artemis II mission, the first crewed lunar mission in more than 50 years. Countdown to the launch with hands-on demonstrations that explore orbits, craters, and the mechanics behind this incredible mission. Take on the Canadarm challenge, explore lunar photos and 3D models in the Moon gallery, and hunt for key elements of Hansen’s mission patch throughout the museum. This interactive program gives visitors of all ages a chance to celebrate Canada’s role in space exploration and witness history in the making. *Please note: Mission launch dates may change, and the program will adjust accordingly if the launch is postponed. This program is included with museum admission. Details: ingenium.ca/aviation
