you’re one of my favorite blogs!!!
Thank you so much! I love being able to bring excitement about spaceflight to people, and Artemis has been such an incredible moment in space flight history to share with so many.
Here, have my favorite picture of Neil Armstrong as a token of my appreciation.
Neil Armstrong greeting his family in Houston after the Gemini 8 mission
Armstrong and Scott with Hatches Open
"Astronauts Neil A. Armstrong and David R. Scott sit with their spacecraft hatches open while awaiting the arrival of the recovery ship, the USS Leonard F. Mason after the successful, but early, completion of their Gemini VIII mission. They are assisted by USAF Pararescuemen Eldrige M. Neal, Larry D. Huyett, and Glenn M. Moore. The overhead view shows the Gemini 8 spacecraft with the yellow flotation collar attached to stabilize the spacecraft in choppy seas. The green marker dye is highly visible from the air and is used as a locating aid."

Happy Moon Day!
Today we celebrate one of my favorite holidays! The 55th anniversary of the day humans landed on the surface of the moon by LM-5, "Eagle" carrying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
To celebrate, I thought I'd share some pictures I've taken with three important project Gemini capsules. Specifically, the first capsules flown by each of Apollo 11's future crew members, years before they were selected for their famous voyage.
Gemini VIII: Neil Armstrong's first space flight with Dave Scott
Gemini X: Michael Collins' first space flight with John Young
Gemini XII: Buzz Aldrin's first space flight with Jim Lovell
Anyway, Happy Moon Day!

summary:
Gemini VIII was supposed to be a nice, three day spaceflight mission. Instead, Techno and Phil find themselves in an emergency and need to return to Earth. While crunching the numbers for their Very Serious Mission, Techno learns something funny about Phil.
