Will Rivers

William "Will" Carl Rivers is a character in Nickelodeon's television series The Astronauts portrayed by Ben Daon. He is one of the five children aboard the Odyssey II when it is launched.

Personality
Will is funny, loves fantasy & sci-fi, and is full of energy. He is thrilled by the idea of an adventure in space, convincing the other kids to sneak on-board the Odyssey II. He sleeps in the vessel's sickbay. When an adult, possibly his mother, expresses upset that he is being "made" to sleep in the vessel's sickbay, he replies that it has an "awesome bed" that reclines and has stirrups, to which she replies that it is an examination table. His mother works as a reporter investigating Elliot Combs's father, and Elliot is suspicious of Will, believing Will may be collecting information on her behalf. He is used to feeling like an outsider.
