As chair of the Science Committee in NASA’s Advisory Council, Wadhwa knows what she’s talking about.
She heads the School of Earth and Space Exploration at Arizona State University, and after studying space rocks – some of them from Mars – for years, she also knows more about the red planet than most experts. In fact, she is the recipient of this year’s J. Lawrence Smith Medal – the highest honour in the field of meteoritics (science of meteors, meteorites and meteoroids).

The as yet un-assigned crewmember will become the first Canadian to travel to lunar orbit and will be one of up-to four crew on the scheduled 2023 Artemis 2 test flight making Canada only the second nation to send one of its citizens to our closest neighbor.
