  1. With Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before. We will collaborate with commercial and international partners and establish the first long-term presence on the Moon. Then, we will use what we learn on and around the Moon to take the next giant leap: sending the first astronauts to Mars.

  2. Fantastic! Let's look to the future! It feels so good that there is something positive on our planet. Putin and co… can continue to fight these shitty wars and drive their own country more and more to ruin. I am for the future, technology can solve everything! All the best for this mission!

  3. Let me guess, there will be some crazy reason why they can't make it all the way to the Moon, even though we supposedly went 50 years ago repeatedly, and now supposedly go to Mars repeatedly, or they will say they made it, and they will send us back, get ready for it, pictures of dust and rock directly in front of the ship. No shots of the lunar sky. No shots of the Earth from the Moon, nothing to actually prove they are there. Just dirt and rock that they tell you is the lunar surface. And that's if they even claim to make it, and don't just say they had some technical issue, as usual. If they really went 50 years ago, and essentially live streamed it, think what they should be able to do with today's technology. They should be able to strap the equivalent of an iPhone to the side of a lander with some duct tape and send us back some pretty amazing stuff, if they are able to send it from Mars. But they won't. They never do. They just keep stringing everyone along, with hope of things to come, but now that they can't pull the wool over the eyes of the public so easily, thanks to the internet and technology, they will just keep giving you false hope.

  4. My personal opinion is that probably all viewers of this video don't need to hear from a SpaceX spokesperson that is reading from a script and not doing that very well. She sounds nervous. We know what's going on..
