send lunar robot to the moon first , i think mankind want to see lastest photo and 4k video of all lunar lander base , all lunar rover buggy , all flag , all pack of urinal poop food gabage , some tool , tv broad cast eqiubment camera , laser reflector , footprint etc…before send real astronaut to the moon…
Sad part is even if they take photographic evidence of the moon landing people will still say it was fake. It won't be long before those nut jobs will say this was all filmed in a studio.
This senior is tired of paying for Star Wars.
The audience videos are better than all the news coverage.. They better capture the scale and experience
A better closer view of the boosters seperating here https://youtu.be/HPGTvLPcMrI
A light-yeart is 6 TRILLION miles (10 TRILLION kilometers). We consider it a great acheivement if we can get to the moon 250 THOUSAND miles (400 THOUSAND kilometers) distant.
I love "feel good moments" but that is exactly what space travel is.
Ever watched the misery of breast cancer slowly consuming someone you love?
Or a heart attack incapacitating a very healthy, active person?
Or a stroke turning someone with tremendous drive and worldly accomplishments into a seated, drooling vegetable?
I have.
$10 billion dollars would go a long way in attempting to cure those diseases.
What are the JWT's investment's pretty pictures (1 ,000 light-years distant) going to do to help mankind solve the major issues facing Earth TODAY?
After 30 years what have the images from Hubble accomplished?
Answer:
Nothing, really.
it wasn't cloudless..
"Long and Deep"….
So we are going to Uranus?
FAKE
"a woman and a person of color"… you know I thought once we started exploring other planets we'd just be considered humans, but alas, we apparently have to be woke in space too. Why not just make it a female POC who is part of the alphabet community to knock it all out in one go? silliness.
"a woman and a person of colour"
Here's one for you cnt. Stop making this political.
Largest rocket US ever built. Something for the US to be proud of, right? Not for NASA administrator Bill Nelson. NASA chief since May 2021, he obviously made this decision: Unlike the Saturn 5 and Space Shuttle, nowhere on the rocket does it prominently say "USA", "UNITED STATES", or present a prominent US flag. Nowhere! First thing I noticed! There was an obvious "NASA" worm logo on the rocket and on the capsule.
Nobody care that there is a woman and a person of color, what matters is that we go back there
if any of you are investors. Northrop Grumman built the engines. NOC
So 50 years later and billions of dollars spent-what have we gained from "space travel"? The Hubble and JWT send us pretty images of places millions of light years distant. To what avail? The space crowd tell us of the "scientific advancements" made by space exploration. That simply is another factoid told by them to justify these massive expenditures.
The greatest advancements in electronics were driven by medical device manufacturers and the military. I know, I was part of the engineering teams that designed the CAT scanner in the 70's and the MRI in the 80's. We worked with Fairchild, Analogic. Ram-Tek, Data General and other major design companies to get the integrated circuits and drivers needed for sophisticated imaging.
In fact in the 80's NASA started using technology WE developed not the other way around.
Here's more the space crowd would like us to believe were invented because of space exploration:
aluminum foil- wrong.
high-speed digital processing- wrong
GPS- wrong.
fiber optics- wrong
digital displays- wrong
WD-40- wrong
satellites- wrong
cellular phones- wrong
the internet- wrong
There's more on their list but I'll leave it at that.
… "ARE THERE ANY COLOURLESS MEN OR MEN WITHOUT COLOUR ON EARTH" … ??? … "FOR MY PART I HAVE NEVER MET ANY ON EARTH" … !!!
After several delays and aborted takeoffs, Artemis carried some test dummies aloft, enroute to orbit the moon. This was accomplished "only" 54 years after a Saturn 5 carried Apollo 8 to the moon and back while carrying an actual crew. Wow, what "progress." Artemis is supposedly using SLS hardware, which began flying in 1981, to "speed up" development. How many years late is the program now? How many $Billions is it over budget? I'm all for a vigorous manned space program but does it have to be run so poorly? It was interesting that NASA decided North American got the capsule design right in the 1960's so they returned to the Apollo concept for the Orion capsule. Very "innovative."
Pretty sure the alien civilization's living in the moon will have different ideas!
They won't build a base where they are not welcome.
I think if successful it will be the 1st time humans have been on the moon
#Wow
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Test dummies… 😂…a woman and person of color…like they doin somebody a favor. Be humble.
So…y’all can send “ ANOTHER” rocket to the moon, but can’t figure out how to make peace between Russia and Ukraine…how to stop COVID… how to get opioids out the trailer park and affluent neighborhoods…y’all can’t handle SIMPLE SHYT but what me up believe you going to the MOON 🌚 😂… nope 👎 … I DECLINE!
😂😂😂
Queue the triggered F.E theorists.
$25 billion wasted in U.S. taxpayer’s pockets. Defund NASA now. Aretemis traveling to the bridge to nowhere. Call SpaceX if America needs a successful financial rocket launch. Defund NASA. NASA is too big, inefficient and wastes our money. Fact! Cheers!
"Person of colour" is that what you're gonna say when you realize your rocket has been stolen
So in 2025 we will put the first diversity hire on the moon?
