Spekulacje nt składu załogi.
Spodziewam się, że ktoś powinien być z selekcji sprzed 2017.
Kobieta i astronauta o azjatyckich korzeniach ?
Niewykluczone, że 2 w jednym?
Może pojawią się także rezerwowi astronauci ?

I had some good success with guessing the Artemis II crew, knowing that Reid Wiseman had just stepped down as head of astronaut office, Canada was sending an astronaut and the wish to not have the crew going around the moon be all white dudes, that left a small number of highly qualified options.
Artemis III is to LEO, it's a different vibe. I see ESA is streaming the event, so that's a clue an ESA astronaut might be involved.
ESA previous said that a german astronaut would be the first to fly to the moon but with this being LEO, and a mission involving testing hardware the ESA jet pilots have an edge so I'd guess Luca Parmitano or Samantha Christoforetti.
From NASA, Andre Douglas was a backup for Artemis II and seems like an obvious choice.
Raja Chari has been working on astronaut development for HLS since his flight in 2022, he seems like someone already well positioned for this flight.
Jasmin Moghbeli has also been involved in HLS, not as much as Raja though.
Nicole Mann also has a lot of relevant experience, working with exploration systems development.
There's definintly some other great choices, Woody Hoburg was on the Orion heat shield review team and Artemis III has another new heat shield.
And I won't be surprised if there's choices not on this list.

My guess is at least 3 test pilots and 1 engineer, two of them with significant spacewalk experience; my guess is Mann (commander), Douglas (pilot), Bresnik and Parmitano (MS). Bresnik and Parmitano will spacewalk to test new suites. Diversity will play a role.

I’m hoping Stephanie Wilson gets her flight since she didn’t get to fly on Crew 9. She’s a pretty special person.

Live coverage: NASA to unveil Artemis 3 crew, provide updates on mission
June 9, 2026 Will Robinson-Smith
(...) In recent media appearances, Isaacman said that the agency was looking to decouple the Blue Moon landers from the New Glenn rocket and fly them on another launcher, like SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy. There may be some logistical hurdles to that, since the Blue Moon landers may need to be fueled with liquid hydrogen at the launch pad, a capability that currently doesn’t exist at SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy pad, Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.

I almost burned the nomination for the Artemis III crew. During the press conference, I won’t be online, so I pre-wrote the post introducing the crew and scheduled its release. Unfortunately, I miscalculated the time zones, and it would have gone out 2 hours early. Luckily, I caught it in time.

Introducing Artemis III.
Four astronauts. Three launches. Two dockings. One splashdown.
In 2027, the Artemis III mission will practice docking the Orion spacecraft with two lunar landers in low Earth orbit — the capability we need to return humanity to the Moon’s surface.
