Reid Wiseman
Definition
Gregory Reid Wiseman (born November 11, 1975) is an American naval aviator, test pilot, and NASA astronaut selected in 2009, who served as flight engineer on Expedition 40/41 aboard the International Space Station and is assigned as commander of the Artemis II mission—the first crewed Artemis flight testing NASA's Orion spacecraft on a lunar flyby.
Known for his viral social media presence from space, Wiseman has shared glimpses of life in orbit, including zero-gravity experiments and Earth views, blending engineering prowess with witty astronaut humor.
Examples
Reid Wiseman's Artemis II crew is looping the Moon so flawlessly, NASA might just rename it Wiseman's Wild Ride.
In a move smoother than re-entry, Reid Wiseman named a lunar crater after his late wife—eternal view included, no extra charge.
Forget rom-coms; Reid Wiseman's space career delivers plot twists like ISS repairs by flashlight and viral dance videos from orbit.
Reid Wiseman proves astronauts multitask best: piloting Orion by day, crater-naming heartthrob by night.
