Every Avenger Who Still Hasn’t Been To Space | Screen Rant – Screen Rant

Some of the Avengers are still waiting to go to outer space. It's maybe not a coincidence that these characters will be MCU Phase 4's major players.

By the end of Avengers: Endgame, most of the Avengers have been to outer space but there are still some holdouts among Earth's Mightiest Heroes who have yet to travel to the final frontier. Of course, fighting an alien invasion was the reason the Avengers were assembled in the first place. After the universal ordeal caused by Thanos, Earth's defenders are now well-aware that the gravest threats come from outer space, which is protected by Captain Marvel and the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Early in Avengers: Endgame as the heroes launched towards Thanos' "retirement" planet, Rocket asked,"Who here hasn't been to space?" Captain America, Black Widow, and War Machine raised their hands, while Captain Marvel, Thor, Nebula, Bruce Banner, and Rocket - all veterans of space travel - looked on amused. When the Avengers executed their time heists of the Infinity Stones, Hawkeye was also able to boast that he's been to outer space. Prior to this, Iron Man, Doctor Strange, and even Spider-Man traveled to Titan in Avengers: Infinity War where they linked up with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Going to outer space is now old hat to the Avengers.

However, the Avengers who died thanks to Thanos' Snap have been denied the chance to go to space. Meanwhile, WandaVision introduced S.W.O.R.D., an agency dedicated to space defense and building sentient weapons, which shows how seriously the Earth now takes extraterrestrial invaders. Meanwhile, Nick Fury is working with Skulls to fend up a future Secret Invasion, while the MCU's newest superhero, Monica Rambeau, was a test pilot for S.W.O.R.D. It's likely not coincidental that the heroes who are still waiting for their chance to go to outer space are major players who arelikelyto comprise MCU Phase 4's Avengers lineup. Until then, outer space, and all of its incredible sights and unimaginable dangers, is waiting for these Avengers to come and visit.

In WandaVision, Wanda Maximoff learned that she is the Scarlet Witch, a wielder of chaos magic and one of the most powerful sorcerers alive. With her upcoming guest appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Wanda may be more likely to jump across dimensions and open up the multiverse than strap into a spaceship and rocket into the stars, but the Scarlet Witch could still get her chance for space travel.

The Vision was rebuilt by S.W.O.R.D. as White Vision and given back his memories thanks to his doppelgnger in WandaVision. The future of the noble synthezoid and where Vision will appear next is a big question mark. It's possible Vision could return to S.W.O.R.D. or rejoin the Avengers,but working with S.W.O.R.D. could send him into space before long.

Sam Wilson was given Captain America's shield by Steve Rogers and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will explore his new mission as America's superhero. Although he's an Air Force pararescue airman, outer space is foreign territory to the Falcon. Sam would need a totally different kind of winged flying suit if the Falcon wants to soar through the stars.

Bucky Barnes is a World War II veteran and to him, going into outer space is the stuff of science fiction. The Winter Soldier has been coping with how different life is in the 20th century, but that already included fighting aliens in Avengers: Infinity War. If the Winter Soldier ever gets to go to space, he'll probably take it in stride as he has every other bizarre thing that's happened since he escaped his Hydra brainwashing.

While neither Ant-Man nor the Wasp has been to outer space, Scott Lang has a great deal of experience in the Quantum Realm. The microverse was vital to the Avengers' success in Endgame and the Quantum Realm is the exclusive corner of Lang and the Pym/Van Dyne family. However, knowing Scott Lang's exuberance, Ant-Man would probably jump at the chance to go to space, and Hope Van Dyne would likely join him so Scott doesn't get himself killed.

The tragic death of Chadwick Boseman means the Black Panther will not get to travel to the stars. Ironically, as the most technologically advanced nation on Earth, Wakanda is in a prime position to lead the planet in exploring the heavens. Black Panther 2 is expected to spotlight other characters in Wakanda so perhaps space travel could be something the Vibranium-rich nation will tackle next. But sadly, they would do so without King T'Challa leading the way.

There are still plenty of Avengers who have only ever been Earth-based, but that's bound to change as MCU Phase 4 jumps into and explores the multiverse.
