Artemis 2 Launch - Going Back to the Moon

[xboxfever]

So cool. My 7 year old is loving this.

Watched from my balcony.

I vividly recall the first. So proud people can still find pride in American ingenuity, perseverance, and accomplishment. That said, the live youtube feed is 99.99% foreign flags???

I looked to the east, northeast but saw nothing from Tampa. Oh well.

 

[Bret44]

That was awesome

Which feed?

And I’m glad NASA is doing this, but I often look at something like this as a “human-kind” thing

Fun to watch with my 5 year old

Apollo 8 was coolest moon mission for a kid IMHO. More than Apollo 11. Best Christmas a kid could have.

Pretty cool, are they going to have a live feed from the module itself?

 

[jcisuclones]

I'm so glad they're doing this again so I can witness it in my own lifetime

**** I had to pick up my kid from daycare and I totally forgot about it.

This is such an important mission to verify all systems work in order to take the next step of landing on the moon and setting up a base in order to mine helium 3 which can potentially solve the worlds energy issues.

Yes they will have live video from the ship at times. There are only windows of time when live video can be downlinked to the ground. I am really looking forward to the earth and moon views to come!

Not sure how much there will be to see, but they mentioned that the youtube page will be running 24/7

Just hoping the first video on the way to the moon has Spirit in the Sky playing!

That's just Freddo playing with the refresh valve...

Loved watching the launch. Such a cool moment to see with my wife and kids (we all went to Kennedy Space Center recently).

What's the best site or feed to watch coverage/progress? I know NASA has their youtube channel.

Are the rockets coming back to Earth and self landing like the Space X rockets do?

No, those rockets aren't powerful enough for this. That would be a next step for that piece of tech.
