NASA gives Artemis II update after record-breaking moon flyby | CBC News

A day after the historic lunar flyby, NASA will give an update on the Artemis II mission.

My “crying at the noble bravery of the Artemis astronauts” was briefly paused after one of the talking heads on CNN said, when talking excitedly about why we’re so excited to see the far side of the moon, “The backside of the moon has really been pounded.” 😳😂
Misogynists drove out the only charter female member of the American Chemical Society. That's not 21st century sensibilities talking--that's what they called themselves. https://www.sciencehistory.org/stories/magazine/the-misogynist-dinner/
This is the inspiring Easter message an Artemis 2 astronaut has for Earth while traveling to the moon (video)

"This is an opportunity for us to remember where we are, who we are, and that we are the same thing, and that we've gotta get through this together."

My therapist said I need to find things to keep me busy, so I created the @cdnspace Artemis II dashboard.

I reverse-engineered the Unity Engine powering the NASA AROW visualization and found an absolute treasure trove of data to display.

Little did I expect that it's now being seen by anywhere from 200 to 600 people at any given time with 130,000 people having looked at it in the last 24 hours. People are even building projects around my API.

Yesterday, I received a message on LinkedIn from someone working in Mission Control in Houston... and they're using my dashboard! He even sent me a photo, but I can't share it until after the crew has splashed down.

Mind blown, and an absolute pick-me-up. The best part? It's being served from my basement.
