Trump invited the astronauts to the White House when he spoke with them in the middle of their journey around the far side of the moon, saying he wanted their autographs.

In an interview with Global News, the Canadian astronaut reflected on his historic lunar journey and shared how it reinforced his perspective on humanity.

The four-person crew — commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover and mission specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen — splashed down in the Pacific Ocean last Friday.

Jeremy Hansen, along with two U.S. astronauts, took part in a live question-and-answer session from aboard NASA's Orion spacecraft to answer questions submitted by Canadian kids.

If all goes to plan, Calgary-born Jenni Gibbons won't be on the rocket — but she will still perform a critical role in its launch and voyage through space.
