Newsweek: NASA Introduces Newest and Cutest Artemis 2 Crew Member

CWR: Artemis II moon mission ‘a great development,’ Vatican Observatory director says
Artemis 2 pilot, Victor Glover, gave a little Easter sermon from space, so the militant atheists on Earth pissed their pants and strongly objected to government astronauts talking about religion.
Bugs Bunny covered this in Mad as a Mars Hare.
NASA’s Artemis 2 moon mission breaks Apollo 13 distance record
NASA is doing their best, but the Artemis 2 mission isn’t exciting, heroic or impressive.
That’s the reason to change to Linux.
It takes some time and effort to abandon Microsoft Windows, but Linux doesn’t force software updates, require a Microsoft account, or remove programs.
Nobody is reporting the specific problem that Artemis mission commander, Reid Wiseman, had getting MS Outlook to run on his Microsoft Surface Pro, but Wiseman has a degree in Computer and Systems Engineering from Rensselaer Polytech and a master’s degree in Systems Engineering from Johns Hopkins. He couldn’t get his email software to work, and needed to get a bunch of rocket scientists to fix it.
That is messed up.
Artemis 2 launched today to take humans around the Moon for the first time in five decades. CNN was interviewing people who went down to observe the launch. The reporter asked this kid.
CNN: “Why do you want to be here? Why do you love space? Why do you love being a part of history?”
Kid: “We’re going back to the fucking Moon, that’s why.”
CNN is burying the clip, so I can’t find a version to link. When Spring Break is over, and that kid goes back to middle school, he should get a standing ovation.
