ARTEMIS 1 LIFTOFF EVENT RECAP. NASA's Moon Mission. NOV. 16 2022
NASA new Space Launch System rocket ready for launch, today, September 03 2022. Launch windows opens up around 2 p.m. EDT. This is the long-awaited mission to send an unpiloted Orion crew capsule around the moon and back.
The Artemis program is a human and robotic Moon exploration program led by the United States space agency, NASA. If successful, the Artemis program will reestablish a human presence on the Moon for the first time since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972. The major components of the program are the Space Launch System (SLS), Orion spacecraft, Lunar Gateway space station and the commercial Human Landing Systems, including Starship HLS. The long-term vision of the program is to establish a permanent base camp on the Moon and facilitate human missions to Mars.

The Artemis program is a collaboration of space agencies and companies around the world, bound together via the Artemis Accords and supporting contracts. As of July 2022, twenty-one countries have signed the accords, including both traditional U.S. space partners (such as Canada, Japan, and the United Kingdom) and emerging space powers such as Brazil, South Korea, and the United Arab Emirates.

The Artemis program was formally established in 2017 during the Trump administration; however, many of its components such as the Orion spacecraft were developed during the previous Constellation program (2005–2010) and after its cancellation. Orion's first launch, and the first use of the Space Launch System, was originally set in 2016, but was scheduled to launch in 2022 as the Artemis 1 mission, with robots and mannequins aboard. According to plan, the crewed Artemis 2 launch will take place in 2024, the Artemis 3 crewed lunar landing in 2025, the Artemis 4 docking with the Lunar Gateway in 2027 and future yearly landings on the Moon thereafter. However, some observers note that the program's cost and timeline are likely to be overrun and delayed, due to NASA's reportedly improper management of contractors.

The Artemis program is organized around a series of Space Launch System (SLS) missions. These space missions will increase in complexity and are scheduled to occur at intervals of a year or more. NASA and its partners have planned Artemis I through Artemis V missions; later Artemis missions have also been proposed. Each SLS mission centers on the launch of an SLS booster carrying an Orion spacecraft. Missions after Artemis II will depend on support missions launched by other organizations and spacecraft for support functions.

SLS missions
Artemis I (2022) will be an uncrewed test of the SLS and Orion, and is the first test flight for both craft. The goal of the Artemis I mission will be to place Orion into a lunar orbit, and then return it to Earth. The SLS will use the ICPS second stage, which will perform the trans-lunar injection burn to send Orion to lunar space. Orion will brake into a retrograde distant polar lunar orbit and remain for about six days before boosting back toward Earth. The Orion capsule will separate from its service module, re-enter the atmosphere for aerobraking, and splash down under parachutes. Artemis 1 was originally scheduled for late 2021, but the launch date has been pushed back to 29 August 2022.

Artemis II (2024) will be the first crewed test flight of SLS and the Orion spacecraft. The four crew members will perform extensive testing in Earth orbit, and Orion will then be boosted into a free-return trajectory around the Moon, which will return Orion back to Earth for re-entry and splashdown. Launch is scheduled no earlier than May 2024.

Artemis III (2025) will be a crewed lunar landing. The mission depends on a support mission to place a Human Landing System (HLS) in place in a near-rectilinear halo orbit (NRHO) of the Moon prior to the launch of SLS/Orion. After HLS reaches NRHO, SLS/Orion will send the Orion spacecraft with a crew of four, which is intended to include the first woman and the first person of color to land on the Moon, to rendezvous and dock with HLS.Two astronauts will transfer to HLS, which will descend to the lunar surface and spend about 6.5 days on the surface. The astronauts will perform at least two EVAs on the surface before the HLS ascends to return them to a rendezvous with Orion. Orion will return the four astronauts to Earth. Launch is scheduled no earlier than 2025.

Artemis IV (2027) is a crewed mission to the Lunar Gateway station in NRHO, using an SLS block 1B. A prior support mission will deliver the first two gateway modules to NRHO. The extra power of the Block 1B will allow SLS/Orion to deliver the I-HAB gateway module for connection to the Gateway. Launch is scheduled no earlier than 2027.

I was 9 years old and was allowed to stay up to watch Apollo 11 launch, on dodgy satellite-linked TV transmissions to Europe and a black'n'white TV set. 63 years later I am watching this on a 10-inch surfpad, in excellent resolution and color. Same rocket crackle though. Moon travels more or less bracket my life. What exciting times to live in!!

Incredible, amazing and a historic successful launch for NASA

Loving this content, keep it coming! Now that NASA has launched SLS SpaceX should be given the go ahead to continue with their march to Mars.

Very excited to see this, I am of the camp to build on the moon i.e lunar bases, telescopes until we have a firm grasp of living, working on a moon then on to Mars after we get our sea legs on the Moon .

Amazing stuff! I grew up during the space programs of the 60's and never missed a launch. I was 13 when we landed in the moon. Thank you NASA for all the hard work over the years. There have been some trying times, but rocketry and space travel have always been extremely complicated. God speed to all involved!

Nasa way to go!!! Hope for perfection so we can start with manned moon missions before to long! Congrats to the team!!!

Sucks that it was at night and couldnt see it for very long 😕. At least it launched

We are going to the moon, but this time with NEW CRAZY technology of 1980, SO MUCH MORE ADVANCED THAN LAST TIME

Wow, flying the John Glenn mission of Feb. 20, 1962.

Way to go NASA! Great to see America into human space exploration again. At least publicly anyway. 👍.

I wonder why they didn't list the most important goal of this launch, which is to test the levels of radiations and heat from the radiation belt, from inside the suit onboard, whilst it is doing the translunar injection burn. It really is the main goal for that launch, knowing whether or not humans could survive that trip and if so then they can go forward with the first step of out of orbit exploration, which will be Artemis II. It's goal will be to send a spacecraft towards the moon to use it's gravitational force to turn around and come back to earth without needing more propulsion. But I do not expect such a massive milestone for many years even if the results from the suit are promising.

Warum baut man nicht endlich richtige mehrstufige Rohrboosterraketen
Eine hitzebeständige Aluröhre mit Gleitröhre und hydraulich flexible Endeinrasterbolzen
die genauso wieder entriegelbar sind. 10x Stufen in der Leicht - Röhre, die letzte wird immer durch eine zusätzliche
Reaktionssteigerung wie bei einer Silvester Rakete hinten rausgejagt. Jede für verschiedene Zwecke.
wenn sie leer ist, dann rastet die nächste einfach blitzschnell über Schnappbolzen und Zufuhr hinten ein.
Super leicht gebaut . Dagegen sind all diese Konstruktionen nur romantische Flieger.
Animationen eher für Babys ohne richtig erscheinendes Konzept.😂😂😂
Wie viel Schub durch getrennte Einzelsegmente weggeschmissen wird
, vieleicht noch für Plasmabeschleunigung gebraucht, hat man wohl auch schon
bei VR -Studios ausgerechnet ? Triebwerke und Struktur will man auch immer
für eine Abfolge erhalten. z.B. 60 Tonnen (Struktur) / 600 Tonnen (Treibstoff).
z.b Summe 660 Tonnen. Ich vertraue bisher nur Silvesterraketen, die sind echt.

Why are we building the same stuff. You need to trump spacex nasa not go backwards ?
