National pride in Hansen and criticism of American schizophrenia between Moon and Iran

Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media

ANALYSIS

Ottawa experiences Artemis II as a national event. Jeremy Hansen, Canadian astronaut on the crew, represents a country's pride in contributing to the program with Canadarm3 — the robotic arm that will equip the Gateway lunar station. For Canada, this proves that space cooperation survives Washington's political storms. Hansen orbits the Moon while Trump threatens NATO — two parallel American realities.
