The explosion of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket is a big setback for the spaceflight company and will have implications for NASA's plans to return astronauts to the surface of the moon. https://t.co/CUV1ToJMmp
SpaceX's Starship V3 megarocket has been completely overhauled, moving the company a step closer to a vehicle that can fly humans to the moon. https://t.co/wJ1hBA7fdC
@NASAAdmin@Lori_Garver Respectfully, I don't see a lot of other ways to interpret, "I've received responses from both vendors, both SpaceX and Blue Origin, to meet our needs for a late 2027 rendezvous, docking and test the interoperability out of both landers in advance of a landing attempt in 2028."
It was a pleasure getting to speak with @AJamesMcCarthy about his collaboration with @astro_reid to create these incredible shots from Artemis II’s mission around the far side of the moon.

I'm thrilled to share this unique collaboration with Artemis Il astronaut @astro_reid.
Artemis II was a unique opportunity to get high-quality imagery of the moon, and Reid was gracious enough to capture some special image sets for me during the lunar flyby.
Anyone else feeling the duality of exhaustion and relief that Artemis 2 is over, and also sadness in the absence of such an incredible mission to continue captivating the world?
I hope @NASAAdmin’s plan to launch SLS every 10 months is realized. I need another moon mission ASAP
Fun fact: When the Artemis II astronauts made their closest approach of the moon today, it would’ve appeared out Orion’s window to be about the size of a basketball held at arms length. 🏀 🌕
While I was OOT I got an email from @NASA in response to my questions about Artemis II Partner @amentum_corp also operating an ICE detention facility, “It would be inappropriate for NASA to comment on non-agency matters.”
My Qs are about the agency. TY
