Remember when TV shows didn’t just start… they introduced themselves? Big smiles, awkward waves, freeze-frames, and theme songs that lived rent-free in your head for decades. That retro charm just got an unexpected reboot… somewhere far beyond Earth.
The crew of Artemis 2 has gone delightfully old-school, creating their own opening credit sequence inspired by classic sitcoms. And yes, they went full nostalgia mode by setting it to the iconic theme from Full House.
Picture it: astronauts floating in zero gravity, striking cheesy poses like they just stepped out of a 1980s living room montage… except instead of a couch, it’s a spacecraft orbiting the Moon. It’s equal parts space exploration and sitcom time capsule.
The video even features a scene-stealer named “Rise” — a plush, smiley-faced moon that doubles as the crew’s zero-gravity indicator. Think of it as the tiniest cast member with the biggest orbiting personality.
Commander Reid Wiseman summed it up perfectly, saying they were channeling those “bad ‘80s sitcom” intros where each character gets their moment. And judging by his comment, the crew had just as much fun filming it as viewers are having watching it.
Beyond the laughs, it’s a reminder that even on the edge of deep space, a little humor still finds its way onboard. Science and exploration may be the mission… but personality? That’s clearly along for the ride.
And honestly, if space travel comes with its own theme song now, we might all be ready to tune in
