@Robotbeat Not tundra tires, but there were proposals to make a floatplane variant.

@xdNiBoR Seems like they want to prevent another rud. Now that Artemis is getting momentum and more of a public eye it might be wise to give the next launche a higher probability of success.

ICPS-2 successfully boosted Orion and its four-person crew into a high Earth orbit. This is where the astronauts will orbit for the next day to ensure Orion’s systems are working as expected while still close to home. United Launch Alliance, under a collaborative partnership with Boeing, built the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (ICPS) upper stage of the SLS rocket.

@amn81052 @xdNiBoR It's not THAT complicated to properly track a rocket launch. Seems like they just don't have the right people. Tim Dodds tracking was better than NASA's....

@PaddyPatrone @MikeSchriber @jeff_foust One that powers an absolutely critical system that guarantees the safety of four humans. Pretty important they keep an eye on its operational status, dontchathink?

@PaddyPatrone @jeff_foust Any issue with the FTS is a launch violation. Of course the batteries have temperature sensors. Think before posting.

We make a flyby of the Moon in a free-return trajectory before committing to landing on it. Now with the “Gateway to Mars” in place, should we make a similar flyby of Mars before committing to a landing there, too?
Chun@satofishi

I hope they keep this “Gateway to Mars” sign in place as a constant reminder that only Mars is the ultimate destination, and the Moon is there only for “vehicle familiarization.” For more than two decades, the faith in Mars has bound this great team together in unity and powered @SpaceX’s repeated successes. For many people, the recent developments feel like a collapse of that faith. 5–7 years may be okay, but any longer and we will miss the 2033–2035 Mars window, and getting to Mars will become harder and harder. 18 years is one generation. I often say that Inspiration Mars was one generation early. I didn’t expect our generation would end up repeating what Dennis Tito had experienced. I still believe what @rookisaacman used to tell us: we can do both.

Tomorrow, we launch. At sunset tonight, Artemis II waits on the pad, ready to carry astronauts potentially farther than any humans have traveled in more than half a century. The next era of exploration begins.
