Hansen is a current crew member of NEEMO 19—an underwater habitat off Key Largo, Florida, where astronauts train for deep space exploration. His education is in physics, with a focus on satellite imaging technology. By sending Hansen to the Moon, Canada will become just the second country to send an astronaut beyond Earth orbit.
