OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE MILKY WAY SHOT BY THE ARTEMIS II CREW. LOOK AT ALL THOSE STARS!!!!

LETS GOOOOOOOO

Victor and Reid suiting up!

NASA is live www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tf_U...

Can't believe we are doing this! Been waiting for a decade for this and they are going to send it on my birthday.... Thanks NASA! Fly safe Artemis II!

Real excited that a launch I have been waiting a decade for, that happens to be going on my birthday, is going to be turned into a trump propaganda broadcast. amaze amaze amaze

a human using ai for all their code borked something for the second time this week*

Orion and core stage battery charging on-going... Seems so far so good, with many people having their fingers crossed :) #ArtemisII

There was this moment on Reid Wiseman's account from yesterday. #ArtemisII twitter.com/astro_reid/s...

The countdown was aborted shortly before ignition, and unfortunately there's no more launch window available today, so that's a scrub. The current window on the range extends until March 29th. The next window after that is from April 8th to April 19th.

I hate the "Trump Moon Base, Trump national space policy, Trump Space Supremecy High ground blah blah blah" that is spewing out of NASA. Has been a place partisanship has largely been left at the door, now its a feature and will turn a big portion of the country against them unfortunatly.

Something is wrong if a top scientist is leaving NASA to do science elsewhere

Gateway is dead. PPE is being used at least, mission is kinda lame though. 3 ingenuity copters to mars, should have gone to deep space. Didn’t mention this but are basically confirming SLS dead after Artemis V Was right on base Not shifting right, they will, just not yet.

Earth Science as a service is 🤢

Great post from a friend of mine. bigaouette.com/blog/contemp...

Prediction: Gateway is toast. Hoping they use the PPE module for something good at least Offically announcing starship will to the TLI on A4 which is insane Moon base hype renders w/ few details and an impossible timeline Possibly shifting everything to the right to give SX more time

I guess we are doing bi-weekly changes to the Artemis program now

Project Hail Mary One of my favorite books of all time Now perhaps my favorite movie of all time Four Thumbs Up 👎👎👎👎

T-3 hours to launch for our latest mission for Synspective. Here's today's launch by the numbers: 🦉 8th deployment of a StriX satellite 🚀 Latest of 27 launches overall for Synspective 📈 5th launch of 2026 and 84th Electron launch overall

Okay so they are just turning it all over to SpaceX essentially, not surprising. Essentially Orion is just a safety lifeboat now and this just puts it all on starship. No shot we are doing a landing in 2030 unless blue pulls a rabbit out of a hat

They have wasted an enormous sum of money on "cost cutting" measures

Its all delusional non sensical ramblings to pump his bags. Grok 4 is a mediocre turd that is beaten by Chinese LLM’s made by 2 dudes in a dorm. Anyway Google owns 7.5% of SpaceX and are light years ahead in every way.

Hopefully this makes a big pile of money so I can get more banger space movies l. The movie was fantastic and should absolutely be seen on the biggest screen you can get to

I don't know when it will happen but eventually all this reckless non sense will implode the market. Elimating accountability under the guise of cutting regulations. I will not be investing in any company that doesn't have quarterly reports for obvious reasons.

Send us your tax returns, medical records, confidential files, contracts, and business projects to our sketchy flailing AI company is an insane thing to ask people to do.

NO! Completely defeats the point of playing a game, nobody will use it and it will 1000% slow down the entire system. Microsoft is such a mess at the moment and they act like they hate consumers. Make good games to run on good hardware, profit. It’s not hard, they have lost their damn minds

Existential dread over the incoming insane propaganda around Artemis II.

An entire administration of reactionary grifter posters all the way from the top down to the spokeswomen of NASA.

Be a solutions guy, not a problems guy.

All teams polled said GO for #ArtemisII - rollout to pad next week on 19 March. Launch date as early as 1 April at 6:24 pm EDT - Another opportunity on 2 April would be at 7:22 pm - 4 launch opportunities within that 6 day period in April.

We should absolutely still be going to the moon! More money on science and exploration, less on war!

It's not the NASA Administrator's role to go off and advocate for an unpopular war. I would think the Human Landing System's problems would occupy enough of his time. It should be interesting when he enters into negotiations with Artemis partners from this point forward.

It's been nearly six months now since my felony charges were dismissed. The DOJ still has possession of my entire newsroom, because they've filed a notice of appeal (but have not actually filed the appeal yet). You can help me get back to doing full-time journalism: https://timburkelegalfund.org/

All of the normie liberal space twitter people simping for Jared are going to look so stupid when this is all over. Dude spends all day posting on Twitter and glazing trump

Today's Firefly Alpha rocket launch (left) vs. my 2025 scale Alpha model (right). (First image by Firefly via Flickr: www.flickr.com/photos/firef...)

I hate to say this but Artemis at this point is a giant poorly planned pile of hopium. The amount of stuff HLS needs to do just to attempt an uncrewed demo landing is mind boggling, no shot we are getting on the surface this decade.

Good history lesson on computer memory and DRAM with a few bonus mentions of Apollo youtu.be/jVzeHTlWIDY?...

Political hackery and frankly just a lie from Jared

MISSION SUCCESS for Rocket Lab's 83rd Electron launch, deploying a single Earth observation satellite to a 470km LEO for the "Insight At Speed Is A Friend Indeed" mission.

The element? The part that is actually holding up the program with little to no progress in quite some time

SpaceX plan for getting a functioning lander ready quicker is….prioritizing it? I’m sorry but shouldn’t that have been a priority the past 5 years instead of spinning every flight doing starlink tests? arstechnica.com/space/2026/0...

This “current cadence is 3+ years so we changed the future upper stage” reasoning is disingenuous. Delay between A1 and A2 was due to Orion investigation Future delay between A2 and A3 is due to HLS They are basically using A3 rocket for a LEO mission and claiming success on increased cadence

A birthday launch for me during daytime!?! LFG 🚀

SLS will fly sooner on Artemis III by changing its mission. The cadence for operational flights may improve by 2 months from 12-14 to 10-12 down the road but EUS has nothing to do with that as core stage production time is 12 months so I am a bit confused about these changes.

Is the transposition and docking maneuver still going to happen on Artemis II and if so, whats the point now?

Someone who has been paying attention more than me, I need some clarity on Artemis new plan. Is Artemis III crewed and are they planning on using an SLS for it? If not, FH or what? Is this standardized stage just a Centaur V? Are they scrapping ML-2?
