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.

Just over an hour to go, and the sky is clear.

Everything is indicating that we're go for launch. Fly high, Integrity.

Artemis II lunar mission has been making me very emotional. Every day I tear up at something, and just in 20 minutes we will witness them flying around the moon. I decided to make a little commemorative astromorph oc based on the SLS and Orion rocket. I haven't felt this hopeful, joyous and emotional about an event irl for a long time. Godspeed Artemis II!
