Are you guys excited for the Artemis program?
Artemis 2 is currently set for launch next year, in September.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis_2
Artemis 3 and 4 are facing delays though, either because of lunar suits, the SpaceX HLS and for Artemis 4 the EUS will probably mean some extra delays as well.
I still think the Starship HLS architecture is overly complicated as it requires a dozen launches in order to fill the tanks, but the future Starship in orbit refueling tests should offer a glimpse of it's feasibility next year.
Also, reminder that Buzz Aldrin is still alive and he recently re-married.

MLK and RFK were killed in '68 and the Democratic Convention was a shitshow. In Brazil leftoids and libs took the streets for a few months and then got dunked hard by the Military Government when in December that year the High Command passed the Institutional Act Number 5 (AI-5) suspending Habeas Corpus and due process rights to combat subversive elements.
It was definitely the year of

I strongly recommend this film Apollo 11. It's entirely archive footage and really well done. Feels like you're watching it live.

The fact that they need like 12 launches to get starship to the Moon reflects very poorly on the idea that Starship will take humans to Mars. It would be cool if it did but I don't think it will. Since Starship can't take advantage of staging it will always get cucked by the rocket equation (Unless they recreate a Falcon Heavy style craft with Super Heavy which would be totally crazy and stupid aha
)
