Trump said they’re going further than we’ve ever gone before! Checkmate Apollo moon landing believers!
Technically he is right about this.
are they doing a further away turn around the moon than before?
The previous moon missions all went into orbit around the moon (except for Apollo 13). This one only does a free return trajectory without completing a full moon orbit.
Which means it loops around at greater distance and will be further away from the moon and from earth than previous manned moon missions.
So they’re doing less than before and making it sound like it’s a new milestone.
