<![CDATA[This is so real, Before it's launch I thought I didn't care about Artemis.]]>This is so real, Before it's launch I thought I didn't care about Artemis. But turns out when spaceflight is devoid of SpaceX it's actually cool again and makes me feel that wonder I thought I lost. I now actually care about this mission a lot.

Also excited for China's moon missions, Spaceflight is so much better without tech bros.

+1 One of the things that appears to have come from flying over the far side of the moon, is that it is far more bumpy and rocky than first thought, so areas we thought may be suitable for landing, may not be. This will be essential for future missions that intend to set up any sort of base on the moon.

China will learn so much from this too, maybe, just maybe one day all nations will collaborate on exploration..

If you are a US citizen, let your representatives know.

Once again the president is trying to hollow out NASA.

The difference is that Apollo-Soyuz gave us hope with Cold War enemy cooperation between the Americans and the Soviets, whereas this gives us hope with enemy cooperation between the Americans and Canada.

I'm only half joking. Canada has done so much for space exploration.

Without him making our (earthlings) lives shittier, SpaceX would create much less frustration.
