NASA's Artemis II Crew Launches To The Moon

Your phone today has more computing power than the ones that landed on the moon.

I don't own a fondle slab.

This is a shakedown to test everything in a dry run doing everything to go to the Moon without actually landing yet as a dry run. If all goes well this time, next year they might return to the Moon and try launching the LEM into orbit. Last test, they had a problem with the heat shield so this mission is also to test that fix.


A lunar base is a prerequisite for attempting any Mars mission, but I rather see any lunar base as being a multi-national venture. Makes more sense than every country building their own Moon base.

Did you see the movie AD Astra? (The only film in which l liked Brad Pitt) Flights to the moon were a commercial enterprise, a big base already established there. And onward voyages to Mars were common place.

As anticipated Miles Mathis has shown that the mission is another 100% Fake and that the bios for the so called astronauts border on the ludicrous

The Fake Artemis Mission, to the Moon. Worse than anyone could have predicted.

He does not just offer an opinion .
He gives you dozen after dozen of simple facts showing What is Fake and How it has been Faked .

Obviously if you are a Sheeplet suffering from Cognitive Constipation it will mean nothing to you .

You all have to separately choose which News Universe you want to be part of .
One is easy to choose -- it is given to you and you lap it up .
Another one is far more difficult , in every possible way .

Maybe, just that it'll take big money that Europe doesn't have. The Russians and Chinese have more money and more advanced space programs, so they make better partners.

We got to the Moon nearly 60 years ago, the Russians tried for it as are the Chinese now. It'll take a massive effort of international cooperation to reach Mars, land there and build a martian colony, and international harmony and cooperation is just what this world needs.

As long as we are not on the hook to pay 95% of it. If Elon Musk's Starship works, the costs go down dramatically. The cost of this lunar fly by is over 4.2 billion dollars. All of the astronauts know the realities of the Space Launch System costs.

It's all Fake .
But it's purpose is not .

To get trillions into the Private Corporations that make up the Breakaway Civilisation or Deep State to give its full title .
All out of taxpayers pockets .
The Scammers supreme Scam .

Nah, I never heard of the movie and I don't like Brad Pitt much neither, but it sounds logical: someday where a substantial lunar base is built, I'm sure a lot of it will be dedicated to commercial use for making money.

And I expect it to take quite a bit of time and money to build the base, upwards of 50 years maybe; by then we might have better technology to launch from there to have even a crack at going to Mars with people, but there will be no commercial Mars trips for the foreseeable future until we can travel fast enough to get to Mars in a month (or less) rather than a couple years.

That gets us up to a speed of about 85,000 mph, roughly 5-6X faster than what we generally travel now. If we can increase propulsion up around 85,000 mph, travel to Mars both scientifically and commercially, becomes a far greater possibility of success.

I don’t care much for Brad Pitt either, but he was restrained and believable in that film.

Whatever the costs, our use of the equipment should be proportional to our expenditure. If the USA foots 60% of the cost, we should get at least 60% of the use and benefit.

Years ago, I had a friend who told me it was all a waste of money. He never experienced the fun of using rabbit ears to get 3 stations on his tv. The satellite pictures of hurricanes forming have saved thousands of lives.

That thar be sum deep thankun on yer part, fella.

Watched the take-off of it. I am glad to see that we are sending people around the Moon again. Now we just need to setup a permanent base there, and start colonizing. It is embarrassing that it took us this long to go back.

The Apollo missions were largely driven by the desire to beat the USSR to it. Having landed there several times and other missions there, by the early 70s, that ship had pretty much sailed.

From there, we had much to discover and develop about people living in space before there can ever be any moonbase, and so most of the intervening years were consumed with Skylab, the ISS, Soyuz rockets, the Space Shuttle, and the privatization of space via SpaceX and others.

Which brings us to the present of being willing to retry going to the Moon in a new, better, cheaper, and safer platform. It took humanity about 1000 years to get from inventing the bottle rocket to launching a giant rocket to the Moon, and now here we are, ready to go back with an all new and improved tool for getting there just a mere 57 years later.

Whoopee ding .....Not the point.

Total Capacity:

A single smartphone possesses more computing power than existed on the entire planet during the 1969 moon landing.

I believe the current iPhone has about 120 million times more computing power that the Pioneer and Voyager probes.

I wish that many more people had an interest in Space. Most people are attracted to clickbait content, and very few have the attention span to sit down and actually think about the future. Getting ourselves to the Moon and having a permanent Moonbase is the first real step to becoming a multiplanetary species, something that humans will need for the long term survival of our species.

Lol .. the irony is if we want to colonize Mars, we gotta warm that planet at full speed.

Well, many people think it a waste of money not realizing that many of the technologies we rely on today came from the space program. That and the fact that until humanity is established on at least two different rocks, all it will take is just one lucky asteroid impacting the Earth again as is certain to happen to wipe all of mankind out of existence.

Hardly a year goes by that at least 1-2 space rocks of considerable size pass fairly close to hitting us. One of these days, one will have our number.

It is sad to see that there is a few people in this thread (and in general) who deny the existence of the Moon landings, the crew hasn't even reached the moon yet and you have these numbnuts already claiming it is faked. Some people are just born dumb.

Yeah, that's about the same comparison for the Texas instrument ones on Apollo 11.

That's something for sure and we don't realize it.

One hilarious snippet from the Fake Artemis material
At min. 5:00 (T+8:00) the event goes even more off the rails, as we see the rocket from some flanking view, with no admission this is CGI. It would have to be, right, unless they launched two parallel rockets, one to go to the Moon and one to film it. We then cut to interior, where we see the separation of the core stage, again obviously CGI. If they can place cameras in the engine hulls, it seems like they could place cameras with the astronauts, so we can see what they are up to during launch. Do they have helmets on, or they taking this fake ride with hair flying and tits flopping, like the girls in the Bezos fake video .
