murps2000 86 #1 Posted December 11, 2022 Orion’s coming home. Looks like reentry will be just after noon EST. I hope it’s a sweet skydive. I wonder if it will beat Apollo 10’s record of 24,816 mph / 39,705 kph. If you’re in the US you should watch because you helped pay 20 billion for it. Is Artemis worth it? We’ll probably spend more than 20 billion over the holidays but the program will likely end up costing 5 times that over the next decade. I’m glad we at least did something worthwhile with our leftover shuttle engines. Still, it would probably be cheaper for NASA to just buy Twitter. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/10/science/nasa-orion-splashdown-when.html https://www.space.com/artemis-1-orion-spacecraft-splashdown-what-time https://www.voanews.com/amp/despite-cost-overruns-and-delays-nasa-hopes-to-launch-artemis-1-this-year-/6746292.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
