I hope the new channel name helps with the algorithm, this is a fun channel I'd love to see it thrive 😊

We need a full list of Simon's channels somewhere... I keep finding ones I've missed.

Celestium makes me feel like you're one video away from selling me a healing crystal 🔮

Woohoo! My rendering of PPE made it on your thumbnail! I no longer work with Maxar Space Systems but cool to see my work for them keep showing up

[gaius_enceladus]

I remember the Apollo missions really well! Very much looking forward to the future Artemis missions and the Lunar Gateway!

Italians in charge of hospitality was a good pick.

Bring back Science Unbound!
Or as I remember it The Science of Science Fiction

Love the new name! and the Lunar Gateway sounds amazing, why have I not heard much if anything about this project before!?
Hoping the new name brings more new viewers and subs!
I disagree with the critics of the Lunar Gateway; having a station orbiting the Moon will be a great support for Human-crewed missions heading anywhere, especially Mars, since the hoped for plan is to gather materials from the Moon to create water and fuel for missions to Mars. There's still so many things to be learned from studying plants, people, animals in space, and from materials gathered from the Moon itself. Why keep doing sample and return missions if materials can be studied at a station before sending samples to Earth, if this is even needed in the future; the station can have the equipment we us here on board eventually, yes?

I've always loved this channel, no matter what the name happens to be... 😊❤❤
Very interesting video!!❤❤

Last time i was this early, it was called Astrographics...allegedly

Hi Simon, great work, always entertained..

Kg to energy expenditure is the holy grail for humanity and our economy for the future, hopefully exciting times for human space exploration as well as unmanned exploration.

The picture at 00:15 is of Mission Commander Gene Cernan and Command Module Pilot Ron Evans. Cernan and Lunar Module Pilot (and geologist) Dr, Jack Schmitt are at 00:35.

A new name! Simon is ex-graphics-ing his Youtube conglomeration, that's cool, I'd just say use something consistent in the channel avatars. You know, to link them all together, the entire Whistlerverse.

The tension on the mic cable bothers me.

[RAS_Squints]

I was like, wait did a sub to a new Simon channel without knowing

[jameswall]

Ask your doctor if Celestium is right for you...

We do not need a lunar orbiting station to go to the Moon.
We do not need such a station to go to Mars.
We do not need it to go to near-Earth asteroids.
We do not need it to go anywhere.
This has been a reading of the beloved children's book 'We do not need it to do anything.'

I feel with the distance of this ISS #2 it’s definitely the time to start making a module for gravity that has enough room for some workout equipment for up to 2 crew members. This module can then extend out to a point and spin creating centrifugal force as close to earth as possible.
