Yes, that’s what I’ve been saying.

Orion was the first to circle the moon UNMANNED and return to earth.

Supporting you, not arguing.

From my perspective SLS is a nightmare, but the Orion spacecraft is pretty cool.

Thanks for the support.

I’m pleasantly surprised to see that NASA can still perform. I watched mission control and all I saw was white guys doing the work. But every single NASA presentation in front of a camera was women or POCs. Rather sad.

Looks in far better shape than Apollo after re-entry.

Live tracking was available on 2 or 3 different YouTube channels. It was actually quite fun to watch. Some of them even included live cameras from onboard Orion.
