Even though I am generally interested in science and technology, I have found it impossible to get excited about Artemis II.

I'm not quite sure. Maybe it's because America isn't exactly my favourite country these days because ... well, you know why. Or maybe it's because, contrary to what I'd always assumed, these things are a lot more jingoistic than I thought. It's not "Mankind is going to the moon", it's "America is beating China to the moon".

@davidnjoku yeah. I was enjoying most of what I saw, but hearing one of the astronauts say that it's important the US take the lead in space exploration was icky. (I don't remember the exact wording.)
