Can’t wait! Finally, a part of the Artemis program that’s innovative.
What will the Lunar Gateway be able to do?
@@chrisantoniou4366 life support
@@owlredshift There would only be two scenarios where "life support" at the gateway will be required, routine supply or emergency supply. If the supply of life support expendables (air, food, water, etc.) for a mission depended on docking with the Lunar Gateway, it adds a layer of complexity that can be avoided by having all the supplies necessary on board the crewed spaceship. True, it would make for a lighter crewed spaceship to launch and send to the gateway, but remember, these supplies will also need to be launched and sent to dock with the gateway. Launching two spaceships instead of one will be far more expensive and difficult.
In an emergency situation, the gateway will not be in an orbit close to the Moon and any spaceship experiencing an emergency will not be able to get there any quicker. Far better to send a crewed spaceship on the most direct orbit to reach the surface of the Moon (if that is the mission) and put it in a position where it can return quickly.
@@chrisantoniou4366 Can provide bakery fast food to nearby hosts..if they have Oven in the orbit
@@HaharuRecords Perhaps put a small oven in the lunar lander or on the lunar base? Or you could place the oven in a lunar orbit and dock with it... 😄
My biggest concern is the waste heat, but I guess they did the math for a space station that is constantly exposed to the sun.
I guess so. Clue : most of it is pointing towards deep space.
I wonder if gateway might have some of those inflatable modules that sierra space is making at some point in its development
Awesome
Excellent amazing very nice 👌👍
Looks like they gonna sail through Lunar Orbit..
😎
When is this moon gate launched? I can't wait to see this happen. and saw people walking on the lunar gates and the moon's surface....
around 2037.
@@typhooonn Haha. Hopefully not. My guess is around 2025 for the Power and Propulsion Element (PPE) and Habitation And Logistics Outpost (HALO) (integrated on the ground and launched together on Falcon Heavy). Additional modules are planned to be co-manifested on Block 1b SLS launches, so delays to Block 1b will likely delay said modules. However, I don't expect the initial launch of PPE/HALO to be pushed back too much. Hopefully this comment doesn't age horribly.
Hopefuly never. It isn't required and an enormous drain on time and resources.
Im so impatient. Greetings from calais France
@@speedycumzales3473 I'm not sure why. All it will do is delay any missions to the Moon to put a base there or to do exploring there.
0:32 why blue origin moon landing or starship HLS ??
They are still not sure what the hls will look like as companies are still developing their vehicles. I'm guessing they omitted using the starship because it would have completely dwarfed the gateway.
I can't wait to see the day that we put a man on the moon, so exciting!
Why HLS undocks without any crew? Shouldn't it be refueled and just reused?
The whole Lunar Gateway thing has not been thought through.
It undocked in the video to swap positions with a new logistics module
Read carefully. "HLS *ascent* element undocks". The HLS has already served it purpose and at this point, it's useless. It's simply cheaper to launch a new one than to refuel the ascent element and send another descent element.
The HLS is going to be the lunar starship so idk if they manage to bring that much methane and liquid oxygen to the gateway
@@orbitalthrust1526 False. Lunar Starship will only be the HLS for the first few missions. NASA is yet to choose a HLS to serve long-term.
I hope it became a permanent space station like iss
I hate to pee in your Kool-Aid but you know that they are decommissioning the ISS very soon correct? It's pretty well known
Why? What purpose would it serve?
@@chrisantoniou4366 it serves as a hub for moon missions
@@ClockMaster_3100 Please read my other replies...

Why does it say 2/25/2022?
Old animation/overly ambitious timeline
That's when the animation was done, it's the "Blueprint" drawing
Welcome to Fantasy Island..........................
Agree. A useless project that has absolutely no purpose.
@@chrisantoniou4366 You got THAT right!!!!😒.........(👽)!!!
@@silversurfer3202 We must discuss more. I can't believe this idea hasn't already been killed off. It has already gone much further than it should have.
@@chrisantoniou4366 cute, you found another idiot who thinks the same than your
@@chrisantoniou4366 how is it useless? It’s the first step before making an actual moon base

If you can't afford to do something RIGHT, then you should wait till you can.

The main core of the problem is ... MONEY. If US keep deficit like nowdays, well you know ...😁 maybe it should depend on how rich Elon Musk is....☺

If you look at the video closely, apart from the building of the Lunar Gateway itself, none of it is ncessary for lunar missions. Even if we accept that you need three elements like those shown in the video (Logistics Unit, Human Lander and Return Capsule), and none of these elements have been shown to require the slow elongated orbit the LG does, especially for the human component of the missions, all of these "transfers" can be achieved by docking the components together, not to a third element llike the Lunar Gateway. If the "Logistics Module" is there to service the Gateway itself, it is even sillier.
Some of the best Science Fiction
To much space junk move space station to moon
More fake Space news! 😂 this stuff cracks me up
remember guys don't feed the troll
@@joag1971 Trolls don’t need food 😂
Watching y’all drooling over this Science Fiction is tasty enough
This isn't news, this is olds 🤦♂️
this seem rather stupid. all that time wasted in orbit could be spend building a base on the moon. you are just putting a target for solar flare, if you get hit by one that short out the electronic, what you going to do? leave the crew on the moon hanging until replacement part reach the gateway? it is unnecessary risk.
