Are you guys excited for the Artemis program?

Artemis 2 is currently set for launch next year, in September.

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.
