In a poignant tribute, the Artemis II crew has named a Moon crater ‘Carroll’ in honor of Reid Wiseman’s late wife, Carroll Taylor Wiseman, who passed away from cancer in 2020 at the age of 46.

Carroll Wiseman, a dedicated pediatric nurse practitioner and school nurse, died on May 17, 2020, in Friendswood, Texas. Her legacy continues to resonate as Reid Wiseman, selected as a NASA astronaut in 2009, prepares for his upcoming mission.

Reid Wiseman, who served as Flight Engineer aboard the International Space Station for Expedition 41 from May through November of 2014, is now raising their two daughters as a single father following his wife’s untimely death. He has expressed deep love for his daughters, stating, “I love these two ladies, and I’m boarding that rocket a very proud father.”

The naming of the crater is a significant gesture, reflecting the impact Carroll had on those around her and the enduring bond of family. Reid shared a touching moment, revealing, “When you are packing for the Moon and discover your daughter snuck some cookies she made into your luggage. My heart can’t take it! ”

Reid’s family has faced a series of tragedies, including the loss of his mother and the ongoing battle with cancer that his father, Bill Wiseman, is currently facing. Bill expressed his desire to see his son achieve his dreams, saying, “I wanted to stay alive to see it.”

This tribute not only honors Carroll’s memory but also highlights the resilience of the Wiseman family as they navigate their challenges. As Reid prepares for his mission, the support from the community and the remembrance of his wife serve as a source of strength.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding further tributes or events planned in Carroll’s honor, but the naming of the crater stands as a lasting legacy of her life and contributions.
