[heloderma_suspectum]

God bless this flight, but as a first-time viewer of a moon launch holy shit I blink and miss fucking EVERYTHING!

 

[Farm Hand]

Hopefully it doesn't come back in a Space Hulk

 

[mindlessobserver]

MOONRISE!

 

[PixarsTedKennedy]

[Necrosan]

What's this? Or how are they getting this shot?

What a load of CGI slop.

You could have just booked a flight to Florida to watch it in person

 

[Nick Wilde]

What's this exactly? Or how are they getting this shot?

think its some sort of camera idk

 

[mingo mongo]

is that good

Yes, means it’s officially in space

 

[ConsentAccidentVictimNo98]

Just a flyby. The landing is the next mission, I believe?

That's the fourth mission. Isaacman has been a tard and really fucked over Artemis long term in a way that I did not realize but PFA pointed out in his rant at the end of his Artemis 2 podcast. But, one of the 8 potential Artemis missions that fly has now been forced into a LEO test flight. - Which without BOLE, it's a soft cancellation for Artemis because there wouldn't be enough SRBs.

Artemis 3 is just going to LEO, a mission that could really be carried out by commercial crew.

If you want the kaboom you go to SpaceX.

I think its thermal shot, all the gas shot behind it

 

[Massive Retard]

God bless NASA and the USA

 

[Gothic Runes]

Glad I caught it live, I'm at work but fuck it. Good luck up there!

 

[Cpt. Stud Beefpile]

is that good

Yes it is.

 

[Gobermental Supervisor]

Glad it launched fine.

Gotta say, I never thought I would miss the SpaceX production quality, but NASA really has a lot to catch up to still.
The onboard camera quality looks like they recycled it from the last space shuttle.

 

[Hatewerfer]

Well that's the hard part done, now just a nice easy fly around the moon and back, simple stuff.
