NASA's 2024 Astronaut Graduation

It's graduation day for NASA's newest astronauts!

Join us on Tuesday, March 5, as we honor our latest astronaut candidates on the completion of their training. Ten NASA candidates and two candidates from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) will earn their wings in a ceremony at NASA's Johnson Space Center, becoming eligible for future assignments to the International Space Station, the Moon—and, eventually, missions to Mars.

After the graduation ceremony, the astronauts will take questions from media and the public starting at 11:45 a.m. EST (1645 UTC).
