NASA Live Launch -- SLS Going to the Moon | |

Quoting: JustmeTX They can space walk over to it and give it a good kick if it hangs up. :) It is a gravitational balance point. No fuel needed to sustain it there. Hey, maybe NASA-MUSK should hire me? JWST does need a small amount of fuel to stay on L2 as it's not stable, but L4 or L5 would work (though those are a much longer trip). The usual analogy is that staying on an unstable Lagrange point is like balancing on the very top of a slippery hill (need tiny adjustments to keep from sliding down), whereas the stable L4 and L5 points are like sitting at the bottom of a valley. Elon will be tasked with servicing JWST in a few years. I reserve the right to declare my comments and posts as satire.

Tens of billions of $$$ to land a Colored on the moon! NASA Sets Coverage for Artemis I Moon Mission Next Launch Attempt Through Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon, paving the way for a long-term lunar exploration and serving as a steppingstone to send astronauts to Mars. [link to www.nasa.gov (secure)]  So the first man on the moon is going to be a BLACK MAN?  Probably a black man and a blonde woman. The typical American family.

I saw the launch from the Cocoa Beach Pier. 12 times now, I've driven up to the Kennedy Space Center to see launches. (One was a shuttle landing.) I was a perfect 10-for-10 until this part August when NASA didn't launch Artemis on the 1st try. But the weather was Ok then. I AM 12-for-12 with the weather being good when I was here.
