The Artemis 2 crew put together a short intro video set to the Full House theme. Yes, that Full House. Each astronaut gets a quick, goofy moment like an old sitcom opening. Big smiles. Slightly awkward poses. Fully intentional.
They even included the missionâs zeroâgravity indicator. His name is Rise. Heâs a small plush moon with a smiley face and a baseball hat. He floats through the shots like he knows heâs part of the cast.
Commander Reid Wiseman said they were recreating bad â80s sitcom intro scenes and cracking each other up while filming. That tracks. The whole thing feels light, not stiff or polished.
I like this more than I expected to.
Itâs a good reminder that the people doing serious, highâstakes things are still regular humans. They joke around. They donât take themselves too seriously 100 percent of the time.
And yeah, it hit a little nerve of nostalgia too. Those old TV openings were simple. You heard the music and knew what kind of mood you were in for. This video feels like that, just⊠with astronauts.
The clip is short and worth your time. The linkâs below. Watch it and tell me Rise isnât the breakout star.
