Artemis II

That place is cool. Went there in 2018? and there was a human powered lunar rover test/race/competition going on. ISS mock up you can walk through…rocket park..one very rusty old sr-71 blackbird…that was a good day.

I’m pretty sure all of that is still there, although they’ve been doing a bunch of renovation recently. They expanded Space Camp, which now has a couple of super big and shiny buildings to work from.

We used to go once a year but haven’t been in a little while. Maybe they’ll have some stuff from this mission sometime this summer that I’ll have to go check out.

Plus we were in a space race with the Russians. At least that’s what Kevin Costner said. Corners needed to be cut.

Update just before 2pm eastern. They passed the furthest distance humans have ever traveled.

(The moon is further away in its orbit now then it was for Apallo 13)

For the next 7 hours they are taking thousands of photos and videos as they orbit

Wont start getting those photos back on earth till tomorrow likely

Idk about Taco Bell being up there but I did see them pass a few Dollar Generals.
