Probably the best video I’ve seem so far on explaining the Artemis program clearly, even on space specific channels! Great work here! Thank you

i love that there is a concrete plan for setting up a lunar outpost. whats happening in space is really not talked about enough as i was unaware of these plans. seems like the media only rarely pay attention wich is a shame but this makes me exited to see the progress we make in the coming years

By far the most comprehensive and detailed but easily digestable explanation of the entire Artemis program, the history leading up to it and its key elements and contributors like this is outstanding, I'm gonna link this to anyone who hasn't heard of Artemis or is confused about it because this video is basically the big picture summary of it all and its awesome.

Damn. NASA should hire this guy to promote their missions. This is a very well designed presentation.

I remember watching Artemis 1 launch live on November 16th, 2022 at 1:47 am. It was my birthday, I had stayed up all night just to see it launch. I remember laying in bed watching the live stream on my phone. I can’t think of a better way to spend my birthday than laying in bed watching the first rocket ship of many return to the moon.

Nasa has been announcing a "return to the moon in the next 5 years" for the past 40 years!!

For $93 billion we could stack Ikea furniture all the way to the moon and climb it.

There is something about the cooperation and scale of this program that's just unbelievably awesome...

I was 4 years old when we last went to the moon, I remember sneaking down stairs and watching it on an old black and white TV, as my parents slept on a cold wet night about 4 am, in a small fishing village in Cornwall UK, it was around the same time I saw my first ever colour TV through a neighbours window, and what was the first show i saw in colour... the original Star Trek!.. fingers crossed if this all goes to plan, ill be 65 when Artemes 11 launches, how far we have come, it was only yesterday to me we watched star trek the next generation and futuristic pad screens, the same things we take for granted now as i pads.. i do hope i live to a ripe old age(82), and see us step foot on mars, which im guessing will be about 2050, then ill feel iv come full circle and be content.

It would be so cool to get a permanent space base on the moon

Build by Boeing??? Good luck!

One the best video I’ve ever watched💯🔥 So much research.

If there were a poll I would be on the negative side. Maybe by 2028. I have no faith in Boeing being able to meet it's target.

7:56 NASA wanted 2 HLS landers, but the 2020 Congress only gave NASA 1/4 the funding that NASA asked for to get 2 landers. So NASA started the competition for a second lander, that will go along with the HLS Starship. For Artemis III, it is HLS Starship that will take the crew to the surface of the Moon. Artemis IV, will be either HLS Starship under the HLS Option B contract OR the new lunar lander. Artemis V, will be whichever lander isn't used on Artemis IV. Artemis VI+ have yet to be funded, but are expected to swap between HLS Starship and the second lunar lander. Just like Dragon and Cygnus have swapped off taking cargo to the ISS and Dream Chaser is expected to join them in 2023 or 2024. And how NASA wanted Crew Dragon and Starliner to swap off taking crew to the ISS. The current competition is under Appendix P for a second lander. Both that lander, HLS Starship, and others can compete for LETS.

The CGI animation of two astronauts going down the side of starship at 14:50 is so funny! As if anyone could make something so tall land upright on the lunar surface. 😂

People need to realize this isn’t your typical vague promise..also this is bigger than walking on the moon. This expands us past the earths typical space programs. We’re going to have a space station circling the moon, a permanent moon base. Special bug out vehicles… a space ship moon lander that’s 6 stories. The heavy boost rocket is what made it possible.

This is by far my favorite video so far in detailing the Artemis missions. Quality content 👏

This video's quality is astonishing, never seen anyone explain the Artemis program that well !

I love space exploration programs. It truly brings us all together.
