Nasa says Artemis mission to Moon will be substantially delayed as it reveals details of spacecraft problem

[DigitalDrifter]

In an 8-year span, NASA went from it's FIRST EVER manned suborbital flight, to putting a man on the moon.55 years LATER, today, NASA can't seem to light a birthday cake, Pretty sad. Hopefully Musk and Ramaswamy will shake NASA up to it's core, and start over with people who are more concerned about getting the actual work of getting to the moon, instead of worrying about pronouns, and about DEI hiring.

Nasa says its Artemis mission to put astronauts back on the Moon will be further delayed.

The space agency found problems with the heat shield on the Orion spacecraft that will eventually carry humans back to the lunar surface.

It said that it had found a fix to that problem. But it will require a different trajectory and yet more delays to the mission schedule.

Maybe you hired a bunch of people from Ontario to help turn it around. If so, these results are predictable.

I wonder if Musk has backup plans for going to the Moon with SpaceX, or is he fixated on Mars.

At the rate this country is moving, China will colonize the moon.

Well, I hate to be fair with NASA, but the difference was that in the 1960s, we were in a space race with Russia with national pride on the line taking huge risks by leap and bounds to beat them to the Moon combined with the fact that we had never done this sort of thing before and didn't even realize what huge risks we were really taking! And the Astronauts of Apollo 1 paid the price. We were literally flying by the skin of our teeth with Radio Shack technology and only managed to pull it off with a huge amount of luck.

Today, the race is no longer there, the challenges are much better understood and with a now much smaller budget in a highly risk-adverse culture. If someone gets a pimple up there now, NASA would catch hell.

The Apollo missions had .001 acceptable risk of failure. Today, NASA has .0001 acceptable risk of failure. This slows down space exploration by making it much more complex and expensive.

They should successfully land a rover on the moon before they attempt to put humans on the moon again.
But they can't even successfully land a rover on the moon.

Remember Buzz said ----

Their ships are lined up on the edge of the crater . Watching us .

From what I have read, we are in a race to the moon with China. However, where we land, and they land may be two different things at this point. Apollo landed in equatorial regions due to the then technological capabilities and China at this point may do the same. We and they will try to land in the Southern hemisphere polar region due to potential source of water this time around. We will not do well with the Congress micromanaging everything due to political agendas which does not work in the 2020's when it worked in the 1960's. The International Space Station and the Space Launch System may be the last total Space exploration and learning projects that the corrupted federal government has total control in building for obscene prices.

Yes it is. It's very sad that our country has become so stupid and shortsighted and dysfunctional that we have slashed NASA's budget.

Having an anti science party in unanimous control of the government sure isn't going to help.

That's why Democrats were booted out of office for their anti science stance.

Look at Unkletart.
He is so muddled that he thinks Buzz never made that comment .

These Orbs (Drones to the Sheeple) are obviously emitting rays which fry the brains of Deniers .
What's the betting that Unkle has been entrained by two of the kids he teaches who have those black Alien and ghoulish eyes ?

What about Capricorn One?

Get rid of NASA. Save billions.

And let China colonize the moon unchallenged? Ummmm ... no

That says a lot more about you than you know.

Six times!...Lucas and Spielberg are pikers!

Didn't Obama and later Biden redirect NASA to some sort of environmental/global warming status while private companies resupplied the Space Station? NASA hasn't been relevant for years.
