- For the first time as a full crew, the four astronauts of the Artemis 2 mission got to get up close with the Orion crew module that will carry them around the Moon no earlier than November 2024.
But with agency-wide anticipate and momentum building for the Artemis 2 mission and the Moon landing on Artemis 3, NASA leadership expressed concerns about hardware delays, in particular with SpaceX's Starship lunar lander. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said, "We are in a space race with China" to get humans back to the Moon.

100% gonna watch all of this mission
For sure same
Although I watched the entire conference yesterday, this is an amazing summary. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, what an obvious affirmative action crew.
That’s what it’s all about. “ It’s not the moon, it’s the diversity stupid .”
You're making an implicitly racist assumption that the best qualified crew would be all white men, because any crew that is not that must be due to affirmative action. That's what you're saying.
@@MagicAl5F4781 No, I think it's clear that the intention was to have a woman and African American on this mission. Thus, all that is required is they qualify not that they are the best qualified. That is a reasonable assumption given the political climate and stated goals of the mission.
@@veridicusmaximus6010Victor glover and Christina Koch both have more space flight time and EVA time then Reid wiseman the commander.
@@blakekaveny Ok, but that does not make anything I said wrong.
Awesome. I'd love to join
These comments really are disappointing and just and insult to all the scientists involved. At least most of us will just get the marvel at the mission while all the conspiracy theorists try and work out how its somehow “fake” lol.
Who needs fake when you have SpaceX vapourware.....
I am so Dissapointed of all the comments in this video, at least give some props guys, we all know its not going to be the same as the Space race as before, its completely different, just be more optimistic we should just support this project and others like starship, don't just write negative comments
It's not the same as before because we don't have the same spirit and determination as a nation as we did in the 1960's, and the budget just isn't there, otherwise we'd actually be meeting our timelines! Personally, if we get boots on the Moon by 2030 I'll be amazed at this point, sad to say.
@@JuricksEnterprise yeah thats what i say unfortunatly, and you are totally right
Godspeed, Capricorn One!
I love the Artemis missions
Why?
@@abvmoose87 why not?
So exciting. We need to spread out in the solar system.
Yes, so we can fight there as well.
@@veridicusmaximus6010 I mean, yeah, there will probably be space wars. But there will also be huge advances in technology, discovery, overcoming challenges, building new worlds from scratch, on and on. It's not all negative.
By the time they fly, everyone else will be sunbathing in the moon.
This MAY circle the moon in 2024. ONLY 56 years after Apollo 8. Fifty-Six Years. Unbelievable. Imagine if the Wright Brothers had waited 56 years for the second flight of their Flyer.
That’s about some of the craziest shit I ever heard. How old are these people? I was there first. Ma!!! He’s doing it again, I was there first.
Isn’t lunar water-ice still a limited resource? So we (the USA) are willing to “share” this resource according to the Artemis Accords? Yeah. Right.
Watch Elon Musk land first to spite both sides of the new space race. That'd be funny.
That's not going to happen. SpaceX is contracted to provide the Starship HLS lander for NASA's Artemis 3 mission, which is an easier milestone for SpaceX than doing a full moon mission on their own, because Starship HLS does not have be ready for a human-rated launch from or reentry to Earth. If SpaceX isn't ready to do Starship HLS they're not ready to take on the moon by themselves either.
OH MAN, THECOMMENTS BELOW SHRED !!! and the Cherry on Top.. This mock-up.... Is Made of ... CARDBOARD !!🤣😂😎
go back ? are you sure ? ( APOLLO 11 PRESS CONFERENCE )
They resemble every local news channel team. Uh oh, no Asian. Heads will roll.
"Back" to the moon. They seemed to do it so easily back in the 60s. With the computational power of a basic calculator. On the first try. Right.... But now, over 50 years later, it's a difficult task?
The Soviets congratulated the US on the success of the Apollo missions. Imagine that.
Easily? Nothing was easy about it and they had multiple issues that put lives at risk.
liars must suffer pain and burned in darkness for eternity...😢
Cost.
NASA doesn't have the same budget now as they did back in the day
Two reasons.
Firstly, safety. The only thing that remains of the Apollo 1 crew are charred remains.
Secondly, budget.
Back then, there was a space race, congress was practically begging NASA to give them more money. NASA had 10x more money in the late 60s than they do now. TEN TIMES.
The DEI crew🤦♂️
Elon Musk is operating out of a cow pasture... Imagine what he could have done by now if he had the facilities NASA has.
An African American , a woman and two white males.
Is this a tokenism crew ?
It is an interesting comparision to the Gemini and Apollo series isnt it ?
What happened when tokenism was tried under Ronald Reagan ?
This is really odd to me. Women make up iirc 33% of NASA's astronaut division. One woman on this mission is 25% of the astronauts. I don't understand what makes that weird. Would you rather they intentionally only select white males so that they aren't branded tokenism?
i mean yes they probably chose the crew with diversity in mind but even if they didnt...statistically speaking, the crew would've had an african american, woman and 2 white males. thats just how statistics work. not everyone is a white male.
Yes it is! At least the Black guy and the woman are actually qualified - not sure if they were the best but whatever.
November 2024? Thank goodness for SpaceX. Or we'd be waiting 200 years or more for a viable government space program.
Well at the moment spaceX cgi seems to be the only thing working over musks way. I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you......
SpaceX isn’t helping at all lmao, they’re not going to the moon by themselves for more than a decade. SLS/Orion will come very soon for Artemis 2
SpaceX's contribution to Artemis is literally the long pole in terms of getting astronauts back on the moon on Artemis 3.
So much so in fact that NASA is looking at potentially flying Artemis 3 without it just so that the entire program doesn't halt to a stop for 3 years while waiting for the lander to be ready.
If NASA would of kept the space program going after Apollo 17 we would already had a moon base and probably have landed on Mars. But they dropped the ball in 1972 to just orbit the Earth. Just sayin'.
NASA proved there was nothing worthwhile on the moon to warrant spending billions. It was just a PR mission designed to show American superiority over communism. It still doesn’t make sense to have Moon station other than a stepping stone to a Mars base
That and send probes. But yeah. The trend is down to nothing.
liars with mortal sin will never get to heaven , their souls must suffer pain and burned in darkness for eternity...😢
why
You first!
IF they actually get to go?
HA ha India got to the south Pole first
Artemis 2?....more like CAPRICORN TWO
LOL, that is just the taxi!
And a taxi of questionable necessity.
Nope. It’s a fully capable deep space exploration vehicle when taking 4 crew for a long duration mission
HLS is the short term taxi to the surface under the same argument
Crew transportation is half of the Lunar landing architecture, so it is very important.
@@brokensoap1717 It also is very very unnecessary. The only reason this thing is still being considered is the sunken cost fallacy.
It would make a hell of a lot more sense to just have HLS go back to LEO, refuel with a starship, take a Dragon capsule up there and pop to the moon.
No need for a wasteful SLS or a moon space station or any of that superfluous nonsense.
And it still is a taxi. When you fly, what generally is the most inefficient part of the trip? The taxi and the terminal. Not the plane that gets you to point B. FFS.

So you're saying you can get a different ride?

Cancel this white elephant 🐘 now, it cost way too much money and it all goes in the ocean. When will we stop spending money on expendable rocket.
no, because then they would have no viable program
@@brokensoap1717
United States does not need a rocket 🚀 that cost billions to launch. It’s a waste of taxpayers money 💰.
@@stephensfarms7165 it needs a rocket that can get this job done.
As of now SLS is the only near term vehicle that can meet the high mass/large volume launch capability to the Moon and Mars in a single launch and be human rated.
It costs billions because these kinds of programs cost a lot of money to maintain and the low planned cadence divides these fixed costs across very infrequent launches.
So if you do the accounting a certain way it looks like each rocket costs billions to build and launch, when in reality the marginal cost of each one is far less than the figures you often see people talk about.
Still expensive but in the hundreds of millions instead of in the billions.
Show the facility they get wisked away to while they are supposedly "in space"
Don't forget to hairspray your hair STRAIGHT UP!
Grow up

God save us from stupidity..😮
with today's tech. the CGI should be pretty easy to produce, should look better than the 1st time.... Do us a favor this time... ADD STARS duh!
Add stars? You mean make it look fake to smart people? Anyone who understands photography knows you're not going to get something as dim as stars in the same image as a surface in full daylight in one normal exposure, it's too much contrast.
@@MagicAl5F4781 i guees all those pictures of stars from EARTH in Broad Daylight are just fake... Maybe you should Sue your photography school.
@@DanJunkins Yes, because the cameras used on the moon missions were supposed to perform just like those on Earth trying to pick-up stars in broad day light. LMAO!
