Introducing Artemis III.
Four astronauts. Three launches. Two dockings. One splashdown.
In 2027, the Artemis III mission will practice docking the Orion spacecraft with two lunar landers in low Earth orbit — the capability we need to return humanity to the Moon’s surface.
Coming soon: one of history’s most complex missions
Tune in on Tuesday, June 9, at 11am ET, to meet the astronauts flying aboard Artemis III, the mission that will test docking capabilities with commercial landers in low Earth orbit — an important step to crewed lunar landings.
Mainstream media in every industry is obsessed with the past. "Stuck culture", nostalgia, boomers refusing to let go, whatever you want to call it. See Top Gun, Rambo, etc for obvious examples
In the past younger creatives were given room to grow but that didn't happen, so they moved online. They still felt choked by toxic nostaliga, and that led to Analog Horror: an almost literal horror of the past consuming the future
Kane Parson's Backrooms movie is the crowning gem of this philosophy and will change nothing

Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???
