We are returning to The Moon, and no matter how you try to dress that statement up, you can’t. Excitement doesn’t BEGIN to describe it. Pride at what the human race can do when we come together for something greater than the individual reasons? Yes.
Earlier today, NASA confirmed Artemis I has passed all tests, and has been cleared for a launch. You can watch the press conference here.
A two-hour launch window will open at 8:33am (EDT) on Monday August 29th from Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Pad 39B in Florida.
Artemis I is a Go for Lunar Launch Later This Month!
