1 in 50 odds of that sucker not coming back.

Based on March 2026 reports, NASA considers the Artemis II mission ready for flight, aiming for a risk probability of less than one in 50.


I'd still go.
I watched Challenger blow up from my front yard I’ll watch another.

Yes and no. Imagine all the little machine shops making gizmos for that thing. It's not all made in house at NASA. They're all making money. I had a small family run machine shop on my first bid package run. They made the clutch assembly for the M-1 Abraham's tank.

Anyone else seeing or having glitches on the site?

There is a good reason we haven't been back to the moon. No need, nothing there.

I’ve read that with the % of our spending the same, if all US taxes were $100 then nasa gets about 50 cents


Meanwhile $10 of the $100 would go to just paying the interest on our debt

And more worthwhile than at least $99 of the rest spent.
