Artemis haters, can we have a moment, please?
It’s taking too long. It costs too much. Yet it’s not being talked about enough. It’s not historic enough. It’s not safe enough. I’m talking about Artemis. Or at least what a goodly portion of the space community is saying privately or online, replete with sensationalist interviews and even vomit emojis. Let’s take a breath, shall we? I may not convince you, but I’m going to lay out why I think Artemis matters, why we should celebrate successes in the program even as it needs change, why comparisons to Apollo are becoming mind-numbing and why this particular mission is historic and inspirational.
