Artemis II

Fascinating that they got those speeds 60 years ago.

It's staggering that everything is down to the second or the point something of a mile. Our public transport system could learn a lot from NASA. 252000 miles to travel and arrival time down to the minute !

Pretty crazy stuff

 

[Bluemoon115]

15 minutes to go!

This idea that the splashdown weather is "go"... it's not as if they have any choice about landing.

6 minute blackout period starts.

Heat will get up to 4000-5000c.

It looks like a butt plug.

An event we will remember.

 

[citytill1die84]

Looking good.

 

[Bluemoon115]

Back on comms

 

[MCFC1993]

Comms re-established, just splashdown to go.

 

[yeseye]

Godspeed.

 

[expatblue]

Fantastic stuff!

 

[citytill1die84]

Mind boggling stuff. Amazing.

 

[MCFC1993]

Shutes open, superb.

Even the engineering that's gone into that parachute sequence, phenomenal.

 

[MCFC1993]

Like something out of a movie, well done NASA.

 

[citytill1die84]

On the dot. NASA smashed it.

 

[Bluemoon115]

Absolutely brilliant!

 

[levets]

Marvellous. Fantastic viewing
