NASA is taking a two-pronged approach toward the Artemis program. The agency has a clear mandate from the White House to land humans on the Moon by 2024. This has been criticized by some as a “political” date, but supporters of the fast timeline say it has injected needed urgency into the program. At the same time, NASA also wants to avoid the pitfalls of the Apollo Program—which flew six missions to the Moon and then ended due to high costs—by designing Artemis to be sustainable for the long term.
Unfortunately, as long as NASA is forced to continue to use SLS, that’s an impossible goal. Speaking of which, they just awarded a contract to AJR for $100M/engine.
Cool cool. NASA is paying $100 million EACH for engines it will use once; and that doesn't include the billions it's already paid to "restart" RS-25 production. https://t.co/pFk31V75zJ
America is awash in them. Not just “overmothered” but, more importantly, underfathered. This is also a key part of the sociocultural dysfunction in the black community, because welfare policies encouraged so many black women to marry the government instead of the fathers of their children.
The blood on his hands. It’s stiff competition, but he’s probably the worst mayor in America, running its largest city. But then Garcetti is no prize, either.

He threatens to round up Jews who don’t obey his orders.
He could tattoo numbers on their arms, too, to make it easier to keep track of them in the future. Or maybe use microchips, like other animals. https://t.co/QpTkpCyBd4
