Oh yay, I haven't been keeping track of the #Artemis #space #sls program of late. First manned return to the #moon since #Apollo17. With a #Canadian, a woman and #poc.

I wonder if #Trump will have speeches prepared for the various mission contingencies as #Nixon had: https://www.space.com/if-apollo-11-astronauts-died-nixon-contingency-speech.html

Of course, if they leave with 3 and come back with FOUR #astronaut, then we should be concerned: https://xkcd.com/1484/

I really hope the orange turd doesn't try to disparage this as some kind of "woke mission" because of Cmdrs Glover and Koch, that would be - while true to form for his idiocy - be horrible. You don't get to be an astronaut unless you are a fighter pilot and several post-grad degrees and are otherwise wicked smart and capable.
