Well, that's probably going to be the last comms backout. Artemis 3 is going to LEO, Artemis 4, 5, etc. are all headed to elliptical polar orbits where NASA can stay in continuous contact. If China sends their first lunar crew into an equational rather than polar orbit like has been rumored they'll have >>16949448 for staying in continuous contact. These four people onboard Integrity are the last that are ever going to be able to enjoy the big silence of being cut off from the rest of the human race. From here until the end of eternity it's just going to be Astronauts putting up with stemfoids in mission control yapping about how cool their science jobs are.

polar orbits are dead, anon. spacex and blue asked NASA to remove them from the Artemis mission design.

>>16949706
Let's be very honest again, we don't have a commercially available heavy lift vehicle. Falcon 9 Heavy may someday come about. It's on the drawing board right now. SLS is real. You've seen it down at Michoud. We're building the core stage. We have all the engines done, ready to be put on the test stand at Stennis... I don't see any hardware for a Falcon 9 Heavy, except that he's going to take three Falcon 9s and put them together and that becomes the Heavy. It's not that easy in rocketry.

Computer, enhance

NB from NSF. What if both Starslip Moon and Blue Moon are ready for Artemis 3? Won't happen, but if:

Could be Blue Moon first because hydrogen boils off faster, or it could be HLS first because it's larger and easier to pick up on docking radar and therefore a mildly safer choice for the first rendezvous, or it could be whichever happens to be in an orbit (which the landers will likely pick for their own technical reasons) closer to the orbit SLS leaves Orion in, or... well, you get the idea.

This is how, for example, it was decided that Neil would get out before Buzz; the direction the door opened made it easier for Neil to get out first. Pure operational practicality.

You bet! It took roughly a decade to human-rate the SpaceX Dragon, with development starting around 2010 and culminating in NASA’s official certification for crewed missions by November 2020. The first crewed test flight, Demo-2, launched on May 30, 2020, following years of rigorous design, testing, and regulatory review.

im sorry son but your mom is a bitch soemtimes. i know you understand.

>>16950027
the alien mothership is approaching

The crew reports five flashes of light — and counting — on the surface of the moon. These are meteor strikes!

And there was screaming when they happened.

>>16950005
Old Elon would fake it in AZ like all the other missions

>>16950019
If that were me I would say girls to show me your titties or else I'm not going to take any more pictures

>>16950010
that's a man

>>16950034
I guess these would look like lightning strikes that astronauts on iss will see on earth. No atmosphere so no streaks, just the little flash bangs of impact. Very cool.

would it be safe to build a moon base if it's constantly getting pelted by meteors? Ones large enough to create impact flashes?

apollo being in LLO probably limited the area they were likely to see impacts.
Orion being further out with a larger field of view, especially in a really darkened/eclipsed regime, has made the probability pretty high.
WE SHOULD HAVE GONE BACK TO THE MOON WAY EARLIER, THIS IS KINO

>>16950040
Safer than living in most major cities nowadays.

>>16950038
Correct. A man with vocal fry.
And he sounds great with it.

>>16950040
Why aren't we getting pelted with rocks 24/7 like this?

>>16950040
all cities will be deep underground. earth is the only body where they will be above ground.

>>16950041
Apollo wasn't about getting pretty pictures

>>16950040
you'd have to build it beneath ground anyway because of radiation
get the Iranians to clear the exits

>>16950044
Atmosphere burns them up

>>16950041
>KINO
May I see it?

>>16950040
I bet this will add to the discussion on overhead protection and EVA contingencies. The chances are obviously very small, even if impacts are like 500-1000% more than you originally expected. But that’s still a risk and these observations probably increase the desire for added protection and risk avoidance especially w/ longer duration stays

>humans have not evolved to see what we're seeing
Ayys confirmed

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH I'M SO JEALOUS STOP SAYING THAT THE CAMERAS AREN'T ABLE TO PICK UP WHAT YOU SAW AND IT WAS SO AMAZING AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>>16950048
What happens when asteroids the size of Texas figure out they can overpower our atmosphere like in Armageddon?

>>16950043
So there is something wrong with vocal fry: women use it. All women with vocal fry in astronaut training should be taught to speak properly. They're supposed to inspire, not send autistic anons into fits of rage.

>>16950034
did they record any?

This is one of the greatest astronaut crews of all time. Hard to compare to historical greats like Gemini 8, Apollo 13, Soyuz T-13, or STS-31. But certainly Wiseman, Glover, Koch, and Hansen are setting a freaking high bar for the Artemis era.

>some rock could randomly hit those astronauts at any moment without warning

>>16950053
we can recognize them far enough in advance to nuke them if it's enough of a threat

why did they say this is the first time human eyes have seen the far side of the moon?

>>16950053
Bruce Willis is still around so...

>>16950049
The description is enough for me to already get excited. Like reading a captain’s log with an observation to st. elmo’s fire or ball lightning.
Hopefully there are HD cameras on board that can dump high quality footage with a downlink later or something though.
For now, all we have are these audio reports though I think

>>16950058

honestly he's right, this crew has been stellar (yes even the w*man

Apollos didnt have the illumination. Also one of the pressers mentioned the orbital distance of Artemis gives them a large horizon to see

Solar energy certainly will not come without issues on the moon. They will get pelted more than previously anticipated, would they not?

did they bring telescopes?

There is hope after all. Jared needs to do an all-hands-on-deck for public relations before future Artemis Missions and public awareness

this mission is on a budget, sir

Baseball is only good if you’re listening on the radio call or actually at the game shoveling down hot dogs and cracker jacks.
