President Trump invites Artemis-2 astronauts to the White House by phone

US President Donald Trump spoke to the Artemis-2 astronauts by phone. In the conversation, he congratulated the four astronauts and said, “You have made history and made the entire United States proud.” According to Trump, while there is much to be proud of in recent times, this achievement is quite different. British media outlet BBC News reported this information in a report today, Tuesday (April 7).
He also said, “It is truly an extraordinary achievement to orbit the moon for the first time in more than half a century and set a new record for the greatest distance from Earth.” The US President asked the astronauts of the Artemis mission how they felt after suddenly losing contact with Earth.
In response, astronaut Victor Glover said that he prayed at that moment. However, after dealing with the situation, they quickly focused on collecting scientific data from the invisible part of the moon. According to Glover, they were having a very busy time in space and working hard. He also commented that the overall experience was not bad for him. US President Donald Trump invited the ‘Artemis-2’ astronauts to the White House after the mission.
At the end of the conversation with the astronauts, Trump said that although he is busy, he will definitely find time to meet them. At the same time, he said that he would like to express special respect and congratulations to the astronauts on behalf of the American people. At that time, pilot Victor Glover thanked the president.
