Show Notes

NASAs Artemis two mission, set to launch this Wednesday, marks a significant milestone with the first crewed test flight of the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft. The mission, which skips landing on the moon but uses Earth and moon gravity for a fuel-free return, has faced delays due to technical issues and weather conditions. The crew, led by commander Reid Wiseman and including pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch, and Canadian Jeremy Hansen, will spend about ten days looping the moon, testing systems for future lunar returns. With no major snags reported yet, the mission is poised to set the stage for humanitys next giant leap, potentially leading to boots back on the lunar surface soon.
