For those of you based in the UK who are early risers (ugh), I should be on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme in about half an hour to talk about this 😬👇
Yes, you try explaining the changes to the Artemis lunar landing timeline, & also all the things that *weren’t* said during yesterday’s NASA presser, in just five minutes.
I’ve spent all night thinking about it & am none the clearer 😱

Thanks for this, lets hope they can sort out the issues, so they can keep to the new schedule.
@zleap There are lots of untested parts to the programme that all need to work properly first time, not least the two HLS systems, if there is to be a crewed landing before the end of 2028.
Very little was said about those critical systems yesterday, which is somewhat telling.
Yeah, are they testing some of these other systems in low earth orbit on the Artemis III mission?
