Carroll

Carroll Taylor Wiseman was a pediatric nurse who passed away on May 17, 2020, in Friendswood, Texas, at the age of 46, after a long illness. She is the late wife of NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman, commander of the upcoming Artemis 2 mission. Carroll is newsworthy because, in a touching gesture, the Artemis 2 crew has named a previously unnamed crater on the far side of the Moon in her honor. This occurred during the Artemis 2 mission's historical flyby of the Moon. The naming of the crater "Carroll" is a tribute to her memory and a poignant moment for Reid Wiseman and his crew as they prepare for their lunar mission. This act of remembrance highlights the personal connections and sacrifices behind space exploration.
