i love how space travel went from Star Trek: The Next Generation to Deep Space 9 in the space of one (1) lunar mission.
Apollo program: boldly going where nobody has been before, everyone is a decorated pilot putting their lives on the line in the most advanced tech.
Artemis II: shitters broken, "I have two versions of Outlook and neither of them are working".
that 00's joke has gone from cringe OS fanboy wars to Utopia levels of uncomfortable relevance:
> Why do astronauts use Linux?
> Because you can't open windows in space.
One thought I keep having about the Artemis II mission is the amount of time astronauts will spend looking at some black mirror touch screen. They might as well be some shlub having someone from home on speaker phone trying to guide them into remotely finding baking powder at the grocery.
But in Space!
Hahaha!
@az Someone please start a "Shit astronauts said in space" account for quotes like this.
At first I couldn't believe either were real, but they are.
@az
Remember Artemis II came about because Trump wanted to relieve his youth by putting people back on the moon.
So NASA hand to cancel a whole heap of actual science programs, learning about the earth, planets, our solar system and universe to make a bus to take meat to the moon for TV.
