NASA addresses criticism over the all-male crew selection for the Artemis III test mission. The crew includes NASA astronauts Andre Douglas, Randy Bresnik, and Frank Rubio, along with European Space Agency astronaut Luca Parmitano.

Col. Frank Rubio, a U.S. Army astronaut, will join NASA’s Artemis III mission in 2027 to test spacecraft systems for future lunar landings. The mission will evaluate navigation and docking with commercial landing systems developed by Blue Origin and SpaceX ahead of the 2028 Artemis IV moon mission.

NASA announced the Artemis III crew, including Andre Douglas, Luca Parmitano, Randy Bresnik, and Frank Rubio, who will test lunar landing technology by docking Orion with lunar landers in orbit. The mission aims to advance NASA's Artemis program, targeting a moon landing in 2028, with SpaceX and Blue Origin developing the landers despite recent setbacks for the latter.

NASA announced the four Artemis III astronauts: Randy Bresnik, Luca Parmitano, Frank Rubio, and Andre Douglas. The crew spoke with CBS News' Mark Strassmann about their mission.
