Let me save you 2 minutes and 53 seconds:

How are we going to the moon:

A rocket.

You “Plan-et”. I actually laughed 10/10

[DinnyPD]

She is so cool that I wish she was my school science teacher.

[Jeetsukii]

Hey there NASA, what happened to voyager 1 and voyager 2, is there a way to turn on their cameras and take some quick pictures?The pictures would be absolutely earth breaking.

0:15 "we have a brand new space launch system"
- no you don't

[B-Man-]

Next video: How do we travel to any planet in the Alpha Centauri system in the future?

[FredicoFinjay]

Never have I had such hype about anything more than the Artemis Program.

Hmm, that SLS model looks cool, i wish i had one like it on desk

[manomalik]

The way she explains makes my fear of space fly away!

[abatos]

Cute vid, I hope the kids like it. :) As for me I prefer more technical video's. Regardless, SLS is awesome, and a big thanks to everyone at NASA for all your hard work! SLS! LET'S GO!!

If I may add my two cents about the NASA vs SpaceX thing, I personally don't think it should be a competition, at least not for us civilians watching who are merely interested but not involved. The more humans trying to get to space, the more science that's being done, and the more noise that's being made about it to raise public awareness and interest, the better! Feels a little silly, people talking about NASA vs SpaceX like they're Ford vs Chevy, or Panthers vs Buccaneers, or Democrat vs Republican. We're not in a Cold War or a Space Race, we should all be working together to share in the awesomeness that is space travel and exploration. Don't forget the words Neil and Buzz left on the moon, "We came in peace for *all* mankind."

All of this is going to be irrelevant in a year, when we'll see Starship soar through the skies.

[cerverg]

They should rename it to "How are we NOT going to the Moon"

[dkavedk]

Such an exciting video, thanks for that!

[pranavarvind]

This is how my Mun missions in KSP worked. Except my launch vehicles were reusable.

The sustainability+staging point argument is actually the main reason I went for that approach. Hope it gets the right amount of funding.

[Does_it_come_in_black]

Very entertaining wish the video was longer!

Your rocket is so expensive! After Artemis 3 it won't be any more possible to flight the SLS. You should invest in innovation making reusable rockets as SpaceX does; other way it's your end.


Edit: I would be the first one to give more funds to NASA but now they are literally throwing stuff into LEO, hope they change one day. Even ESA and Roscosmos are doing their plans for reusable rockets! (they have a lot of work to do but they did more than NASA)

HI HI... I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW??? Here on Earth we take a fish out of water.. it flops around, it's actually trying to swim but has no water to create movement. So it flops around.... If we take a fish into space, take it out OF water would it flop around or would it LOOK LIKE IT IS swimming in no gravity environment???? ALSO, WHEN WE HAVE WATER IN SPACE IT TURNS INTO A BUBBLE OF WATER FLOATING. IF WE TAKE A FISH AND PUT IT INTO THIS WATER BUBBLE, IN SPACE, WOULD THE FISH STAY WITHIN THE WATER BUBBLE OR SWIM OUT OF IT.
