Are people aware one of the astronauts on board Artemis II is a woman?

Yes? Then why keep saying it's 'manned' by...

We swapped to 'crewed' years ago.

The majority of space agencies call it crewed.

Is it demeaning? Yes. So please use 'crewed'.

@grb090423 If they can say "manned", we can say "It's womanned by several men and one woman".

Absolutely. Why not! 👍🙂

@clock @grb090423 oil on fire. this is the kind of attitude that emboldens mysoginists and ensure we have more macho testosterone fuelled groups escalating their rhetoric. Crewed is good.
@grb090423 Yes, it is manned by a woman. I get it.
@grb090423 ...you missed that the Trump admin is now in charge. So it is "manned". The girls are just there to sweep the toilt which is dysfunctional on Artemis right now.... ​
