NASA's Artemis II Crew Launches To The Moon (Official Broadcast)

Apollo 8 goes up about 2026-04-01T21:20:00Z hydrogen leaks willing..

Which one is Ryan Gosling?

Not sure I would have wanted to be launched on April Fools day…

The Canadian.

Mass-wise he’s about 1.2 crew as well.

My gut feeling this crew was picked at least 10 months ago. :slight_smile:

Watching. Pretty interested in this… I was 2 years old the last time we had people in lunar orbit.. (Are they doing an orbit injection burn or just a free return?)… Crazy engineering. I’m worried.

Free return I beleive. Artemis 1 with that heat shield was quite a thing so this feels like some risk. Inspiring but also sorta scary.

Sounds like a battery temperature problem with one of the batteries for the launch abort system… I guess they are looking at it.

I am sat on the edge of my seat. 28 mins

Battery issue sorted.

Hold at 10 mins

Figures , cloudy here at beach in Jacksonville, FL.

Looks very grey on the feed I’m watching. Scrub likely i think

Holds lifted 9 mins

6 minutes..!!

wiggle wiggle!

Woooooo!

It’s so gorgeous

That was SICK!

Me and the wife audibly gasped at booster separation

What a show.

Spread your wings and fly :saluting_face:
