YALL I'm going to cry

[grayrazor]

Drives me insane seeing people criticize stages and capsules as “obsolete” or “a step backward”

Compared to what? The space shuttle? SpaceX? Blue Origin? Virgin Galactic?

Those haven’t taken anyone to the moon.

NASA had to build SLS out of spare odds and ends and it’s still going farther than any of the billionaire brigade.

Not sure if I mentioned it before but I work in a planetarium so it's been a very exciting week for me and my coworkers. I actually watched the livestream of the crew being picked up from the Orion capsule and taken to the ship on our big dome. Before people started showing up it was just me and my coworker (who is in his late 70's and remembers the Apollo missions) chatting about everything about the mission and how glad we were that everything went well overall. There was a bunch of kids during the show just really excited about Artemis and asking me tons of questions.

I just wish I could better articulate how everything about this mission and the crew brings warmth to my heart. I hope this feeling continues and what was achieved and can still be achieved is not easily forgotten.

Saw a photo of the Orion capsule after splashdown and got completely charmed by it, so I painted this little doodle
