Mashable is one of the outlets that reported on the naming of a newly identified lunar crater by the astronauts of the Artemis mission… one of the most moving stories from this voyage around the far side of the Moon:
A few hours before mission control’s expected communication blackout with the Orion spacecraft, the crew announced they had seen two previously unnamed craters and would like to propose names for them.
One was to honor [Commander Reid] Wiseman’s late wife.
“There’s a feature in a really neat place on the moon,” Hansen, whose voice trembled, told Houston. “It’s a bright spot on the moon, and we’d like to call it Carroll.”
Carroll Taylor Wiseman, who had two daughters with Wiseman, died of cancer in 2020. She was 46. Their children are Katie and Ellie.
The fresh crater lies near the boundary between the moon’s near side and far side — an area that, at certain times during the moon’s orbit, can be seen from Earth. This feature is just northwest of Glushko crater.
…
Before the emotional moment, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jenni Gibbons, serving as the communicator in mission control, told Wiseman that he had family in the viewing gallery. That was a surprise. After questioning if Gibbons was kidding, he made a heart with his hands toward the video camera and pointed to a bracelet on his wrist.
