Title: Back to the Moon
Post by: crashlander on April 02, 2026, 09:58:16 am
I must admit more than a little satisfaction to see Artemis II headed to the Moon.
It has been 50 years since humanity retreated from space, and I'm glad that has been reversed.
It may not be one small step for man, but it is a start.

I’m about to go over and see what the deniers think of it, sorry make of it because they don’t think much.

Was reading about some of the mars rover work this morning, absolutely inspiring some of NASA's work.

Cue the conspiracy theorists.  ::)  ::)

There looks to be a bit of a glitch in the termination system that blows the rocket up if it fails rather than letting it fall to Earth and hit someone on the head.
I suspect the falling debris would be just as dangerous but...it may delay the launch.

Wear your tinfoil hat or Pith helmet to protect against cosmic rays and space debris....
