Today, President Donald J. Trump took historic action to remove barriers on psychedelic treatments for serious mental illness — delivering new hope to millions of Americans, especially our veterans. 🇺🇸
One week has passed since Artemis II returned to Earth after a historic mission around the Moon. We laughed, we cried, and we pushed the boundaries of what’s possible, setting the stage for future innovation and exploration.
We’re just getting started.
To think that we aren't just going "to the Moon," but rather traveling to meet it at an exact point in space... changes everything.
It all comes down to orbital mechanics: arriving at the precise location, at the precise moment.
One tiny error... and it simply doesn't happen
This animation shows NASA’s Artemis II mission path, a journey of nearly 685,000 miles. The crew will travel in a figure-eight trajectory, looping out from Earth, around the Moon, and back again.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.
We're going around the Moon. Come watch with us. Artemis II's four-astronaut crew is lifting off from @NASAKennedy on an approximately 10-day mission that will bring us closer to living on the Moon and Mars. The launch window opens at 6:24pm ET (2224 UTC). https://t.co/X27QJejNDt

Our nation mourns the loss of six extraordinary American heroes. These brave warriors gave everything in service to our country, supporting Operation Epic Fury.
Major Jeffrey R. O’Brien.
Captain Cody A. Khork.
Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert M. Marzan.
Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor.
Sergeant First Class Noah L. Tietjens.
Sergeant Declan J. Coady.
Our service members bear a responsibility and a duty most civilians will never come close to understanding. They know that the day might come when they are asked to risk their life in defense of their country. As Secretary of War, I stand with an unbreakable spirit to honor their memory and the resolve they embodied.
To their families, loved ones, and fellow warfighters: We lift you up in prayer and pledge our unwavering support. Their deaths will not be in vain. We will honor them with action. We will hunt down the Iranians radicals responsible, dismantle their military capabilities, and ensure that justice is swift and absolute. We stand stronger than ever, ready to avenge these fallen heroes and crush the threats in Iran that dare to challenge us. America does not yield; we advance, we prevail, and this we'll defend.
God bless our warfighters, their families, and the United States of America.
Tonight a SpaceX Falcon 9 carrying Starlink satellites was seen from here in Pittsburgh only 6 minutes after launching from Cape Canaveral, FL! #pittsburgh
Meanwhile the govt profits because the food they’ve been marketing for decades turns people into fodder for the health care industry. It’s all corrupt. Blame people all you want, but the institution has a major role in the downfall of americas health.
