...restrictions are there for a reason so that people DON'T develop side effects such as NHL.

Just because glyphosate exists on a crop does not mean its level is high enough to cause NHL.

Literacy rates are in the bin.

This means literally nothing. The implication here is that Bayer are profiting by selling drugs for NHL whilst causing people to develop it in the first place by a company they own.

There are restrictions for how much glyphosate is allowed on human food crops as set out by the EPA. Those...

The Artemis program is ongoing, and its long-term goal is to establish a permanent base on the Moon to facilitate human missions to Mars!

It is expected that Artemis II will perform a crewed lunar flyby, and Artemis III will involve a crewed lunar landing for the first time in over 50 years.

This is how recovery teams found the spacecraft.

Here is Orion's splashdown 20 minutes later, landing in the Pacific Ocean, southwest of California.

At 5:20pm on December 11th, Orion reentered the Earth's atmosphere.

Once launched and separated, the spacecraft (called Orion) deployed its 24-foot solar wings and made its first flyby of the Moon. It then performed a distant orbit of the Moon for five days, before making its final flyby of the Moon and eventually returning to Earth.

Artemis I was launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Initially, the launch was scheduled for August 29th but was delayed multiple times.

Although unmanned, the spacecraft carried three mannequins equipped with sensors to provide data on their experiences. Snoopy even rode along!

***CORRECTION***

The probe had landed two-and-a-half years earlier; not seven months earlier.

Here is a picture of Conrad visiting the Surveyor 3 probe.

As result of the mission, geologists were able to date the impact that formed the crater known as Copernicus to 810,000,000 years ago!

Here is footage of Lunar Module Pilot Alan Bean accidentally pointing the first colour camera on the Moon at the Sun, and thus destroying its sensor. As a result, TV coverage of the mission immediately ended.

Apollo 12's mission patch reflects the crew's naval background as US Navy commanders and is quite hilarious.

A reporter had previously questioned Conrad as to whether NASA had instructed Neil Armstrong on what to say as he stepped on the Moon. In response, Conrad (a short man) bet her $500 that his first words would be, "Whoopie! Man, that may have been a small one for Neil, but that's a long one for me."

Because of the strikes, it was feared that the parachute of the command module (which housed the crew) was damaged and would not deploy when the crew returned back to Earth, though Mission Control decided not to share this information with them since the rocket had already lifted off.
