WHY ? is it so HARD to do what was supposedly done 70+ years ago considering the tech of today? cause it's our first time really trying to go there...

$4.1 Billion includes fixed costs, facilities, R&D and ESA's contributions. Actual launch cost is probably more around $6-800 million.

this rocket supposedly has more power than the saturn 5s 7.5 million pounds when artemis 1 is packing 8.8 million pounds. i wonder how much noise this beast is going to make when she takes off

We (Humans) know how to get to the moon we did it 50 years ago! Now we have new and more powerful and sophisticated vehicles to get us there so we are learning how to fly and operate these new vehicles as we go! It's not just the launch vehicles and spacecraft that are very impressive but also the huge infrastructure on the ground that is required to get us to the moon and beyond! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

In the same way the Saturn-5 and the moon landings of the 1960's advanced technology, science and knowledge so will the Artemis & Starship programs and infact they are already doing so! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Moon landing it’s a lie. Seriously? in the 60’s? Please don’t make me laugh. That’s ridiculous. Now they are figuring things out on how to “come back “ hahaha. Why? Shouldn’t it be easier if they already gone? 🤣

Wouldnt have happened without political will from the previous administration.
