It’s been 50 years since humans set foot on the Moon. Entire generations were born after this historic accomplishment. But humanity has kept its eyes on the sky and vowed to return. This week marks the end of the beginning of that journey, the completion of Artemis I, sending a human-rated capsule around the Moon and back again. With Orion safely back on Earth, let’s look back at this amazing accomplishment and ponder what comes next.

The Artemis program was mired in so much negativity, doubt and skepiticism among experts and space enthusiasts, but my inclination was always to be optimistic about it. When Artemis I returned, it was a huge sigh of relief to me as well and I felt vindicated in my faith in NASA and its partners! Here's to the future missions going as smoothly. :)

@Thisandthat8908 Год назад

alot of the trouble and even design decisions came from politics that NAsa had little influence over.

@Bazzookie Год назад

@@networknomad5600 The problem isn't NASA, it's that they're a government organization, and so they're constantly fighting for every scrap of funding they can get. They have to constantly convince the US government that funding rockets purely for space exploration is actually worth it, and in many ways the only way they get that funding is by agreeing to some form of tie in to potential military development, and It's why the space shuttle was designed the way it was for example. The reason the private sector can be so successful is because they're for profit and their goal isn't simply the exploration of space, it's turning space exploration into a business. That grabs many investors attention and can create a massive pool of money for new development. Asking people to invest in something purely for the sake of discovery is an incredibly hard sell, because in reality you're simply just asking them to burn their money. When you throw dollar signs into the mix and say, "this investment can potentially make you billions of dollars," it becomes a hell of a lot more enticing.

We waited so long for James Webb Space Telescope and Artemis to launch it felt this would never happen. Suddenly JWST is working away in its special place in space, cranking out a new level detail in imaging and science. Artemis did it’s usual tease with launch attempts. Again, suddenly it was headed to the moon.

I would like to say something. don't get me wrong - the rocket hardware is absolutely amazing. What they have built is awe inspiring, and a true testament to human genius and persistence. But I would like to give a huge shout out to the people responsible for what you don't see. The geeky people drip fed coffee and fed on Pizza. Yes thats the software developers. They miss out because people cant see what they do, but they also do an awesome job, and tend to be the first that get blamed if things go wrong. So a big congratulations to and thanks to the software people - you are all just as awesome as the rocket scientists!

Thanks so much, Fraser! I really appreciate this Overview episode; I was super enthusiastic about Artemis, but my work precluded my being able to follow the mission in detail. My kid and I saw Artemis on the launch pad last Spring, and it's thrilling to know it flew successfully.

@k.sullivan6303 Год назад

I'm excited about the success of Artemis so far. I am now more excited about Exo Planet discoveries than I was a week ago. I am excited because of the recent announcement of the breakthrough with Nuclear Fusion. There is still a long way to go with Fusion but the recent success has given me hope the our planet may survive long enough now to give us the extended time our civilization has to develop the technology. One day fusion might be what enables us to visit another solar system and check out it's planets, moons, and the star itself.

I am so excited as I was born in 1972 and missed the first landings on the moon; My parents told me about this and all my childhood was filled with science and books on blackholes and space and I even won a prize for a speech I made about the discoveries of universe; Now I am in my 50's and I cannot wait to see it with my eyes. BUT I am sorry but... I feel soooo puzzled by the situation as years go by; When I took my son to the space museum in Washington, he told me: "Mom, it is a joke, this looks like a school project in middle school" speaking about the capsule. And then I started to question myself a lot. So now I cannot wait to prove him that yes, men walked on the moon in 1969... But I do not know anymore. And you know what? I think we are 30 pc to believe it did not happen and another 30 pc who do not dare to say they feel it never happened. And the other 30 pc are like me and wait for it to happen again...before they die...

@joelcorley3478 Год назад

Artemis I lept off the pad because the second and upper stages are under-powered, interim solutions. The SLS booster is simply designed to loft a lot more payload than Artemis I had to send. And because these other components were underpowered, there wasn't a lot more it would have been capable of doing as it stands today - at least if it actually had occupants, life support and other essential equipment.

I echo & amplify your closing sentiments! As a junior high student in the Md suburbs of DC, I was in the auditorium at school for a presentation by some NASA guys about the upcoming Mercury program, and the followup Gemini & Apollo missions. As these were fulfilled over the following decade-and-a-half, it was an exciting time for a young amateur astronomer. Then, after complete success, the whole thing just kinda fizzled. But now, the return to travel beyond near-Earth space is, after half a century, finally about to happen! So seeing this first Artemis mission finish successfully is a little surreal, after that 50-year pause. And once again, there's excitement in the air about what will come in the next decade. Fred

Nice overview! Regarding the re-entry of Orion : was the re-entry profile anything like those of the Apollo CMs? I know that those missions used the lift of the capsule to increase altitude (and thus decrease heating) for a short time during re-entry. Was this similar to the Orion capsule "bouncing off" the atmosphere for a while, or does Orion go to much higher altitudes during this phase of re-entry, or something else?

To be more specific, the $4 billion cost is by the OIG's own admission somewhat inaccurate. That is the cost of the entire NASA launch facility upkeep + all the involved NASA facilities + Airbus's facilities + ESA (that NASA doesn't pay for) + development cost of the rocket + 4 SLS rockets. All divided by the first 4 development launches. Essentially this is including a lot of costs that are not part of the SLS or even paid for by NASA. Each rocket itself doesn't cost $4 billion. The incidental cost to build and fly one is about $8-900 million which is still a LOT but its been somewhat blown out of proportion in order to make the program look worse than it is. Its actually around the inflation-adjusted cost of a Titan IV construction+launch in the 1990s. The original plan was actually to do the Artemis mission plan, but missions 3, 4, 5, 6 would be building up the Gateway first. Since it was assumed lander development would take a while on the flat budget, the landing was targeted at 2028. The Trump admin named the program but demanded a landing in 2024 before the president's second term. (Originally they asked NASA to fly Artemis 1 with crew) Congress ignored this request and continued to fund to the "2028 Landing" profile which is ironically where the landing is slipping to.

@frasercain Год назад

Yeah, the actual cost per flight will depend on how many flights they do and amortize it over the long run.

Unrelated question! Hey Fraser.. I noticed in your recent article about the Oort Cloud that on a logarithmic scale that the planets are fairly evenly distributed and my intuition even suggested the small variances might be down to the mass of the planets. For example, might the larger gap between Mars and Jupiter be due to jupiters proportionally much larger mass (and possibly the additional small amount of mass made up by the asteroid belt..) My question is; is this even distribution based on mass a natural product of orbital dynamics during the formation of the solar system and if so is it demonstrated elsewhere in other exo-systems?..

@frasercain Год назад

This is known as the Titus-Bode law, and it claims to predict the locations of planets. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titius%E2%80%93Bode_law But we still haven't got good enough observation of exoplanetary systems to confirm it beyond the Solar System.

@rikk319 Год назад

I heard decades ago that the mass of asteroids in the asteroid belt would add up to form a planet roughly the size of Mars. However, seeing I read that 20-30 years ago, astronomers may have adjusted their measurements.

While it’s amazing to BE going back to the moon and I and will cheer on every single person who launches, I still feel that this money would have been much better spent on other missions. So much amazing science could be done for the billions being spent here which will bring back relatively little. Think of how many probes to the planets could be launched for all of this! I don’t feel the moon is any longer the kind of aspirational awe inspiring target it once was. One could argue it’s a stepping stone to mars and in that I would support this. But it doesn’t feel like SLS is being designed for that as a long term target. Still the bigger issue is NASAs limited budget vs say the military. If it didn’t have to compete with other science goals for such a small slice of the pie.

I hope they have a back up ready to replace “Starship.” I’d bet a lot of money that it will fail.

Could we place a few satellites around the moon to eliminate the out of touch time?

@frasercain Год назад

Sure, there are plans to put a network of satellites around the Moon so we don't lose contact.

The moon is an excellent place to establish bases for a launch to other bodies in the solar system. Also, blast damage from the launch trashed the mobile launcher (Musk's rocket did also) so the mobile launcher problems will have to be worked out.

Everything that you’ve mentioned is something on the Apollo craft managed to do with far less computer power, and you have missed out the biggest most important test that was made on the Artemis one flight. The one test which promised a brighter future for a bit of technology and that was the inflatable heat shield test which went without a hitch and will have huge repercussions into the future unlike the Artemis capsule, which is a relic of the past, and will be consigned to, the trash heap once starship is fully operational

@executivesteps Год назад

Let’s see Starship re enter the atmosphere successfully a few times before consigning anything to the trash heap.

@Snoodlehootberry Год назад

@@executivesteps Absolutely, as I said above once starship is fully operational.

The thin aluminum sheets on the LM were not there to stop ionizing radiation. It was there to keep the sunlight off of the cryogenic tanks which it did perfectly well.
