US attempts first lunar touchdown in 50 years

I wish mankind would do more of this and less killing each other

You had to be alive in 1969 to truly appreciate the excitement of the first lunar landing! People were still alive who grew up on the old space fantasy radio shows like 'Buck Rogers' and 'Flash Gordon' etc.!

Was born in 1959 and was part of the excitement and would love to relive those days all over again.

Did she honestly just say the Japanese lander didn't have problems? While showering an upside-down lander?

I love that they're saying it's not a government thing. It's a civilian thing but yet the government have complete control over every aspect of it. It's regulated down to the micron

Lunar landing successful, Trump: "I made this project a success" Lunar landing failed, Trump: " this will not happen if I were the president"

Trump: "I know lunar. No one does lunar better than me okay. 🖐 👋

Odysseus was equipped with six NASA instruments and another six commercial payloads, including small moon sculptures by the artist Jeff Koons, proof-of-concept cloud storage technology, Columbia Sportswear insulation blankets and a small astronomical telescope. Among the NASA experiments: an instrument to study the charged particle environment at the moon's surface, another designed to test navigation technologies and the downward-facing cameras designed to photograph how the lander's engine exhaust disrupts the soil at the landing site. An innovative sensor using radio waves to accurately determine how much cryogenic propellant is left in a tank in the weightless environment of space, technology expected to prove useful for downstream moon missions and other deep space voyages. Odysseus and its instruments are expected to operate on the surface for about a week, until the sun sets at the landing site. At that point, the lander's solar cells will no longer be able to generate power and the spacecraft will shut down. Odysseus was not designed to survive the ultra-cold lunar night.

I bet the UAP won't even let them put nukes in space.

Thanks you so match

It's wonderful to see discussions about policies like the Child Tax Credit and efforts towards reducing child poverty. It's heartening to know that there are dedicated individuals and committees, such as the House Ways and Means Committee, working towards these goals. Efforts like these in California and across the U.S. Congress highlight the importance of advocacy and legislative action in addressing critical issues like family welfare and poverty alleviation. The dedication of lawmakers and advocates to explore policy innovations and progressive measures can make a significant impact on the lives of many families. It's inspiring to see this commitment to social welfare and economic relief, and it sets a hopeful example of what can be achieved through thoughtful fiscal policy and community support. Keep up the great work!

Wow, that's such an exciting milestone! It's amazing to think about the progress and advancements in space exploration over the past 50 years. Returning to the moon is not just a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance, but it also opens up so many possibilities for scientific discovery and space travel. Imagine the new knowledge and opportunities this mission could bring. It's truly inspiring to see how far we've come and to dream about where we might go next! 🚀🌕✨

Guys. Cameras just weren't in the budget for this. Sorry.

Such a momentous occasion, and has been rarely mentioned if ever the past few days on the news.

Explore space in peace, destroy Earth in war. Crystal clear.

the moon is made of a total of three different kinds of cheese.

We have learned very helpful information for space flights since 1960's and some much new technology and products have benefited humans back on Earth that many people have yet to remember or understand enough.

could you imagine how far we would be if we worked together and didn't spend all our time lying and trying to cheat and kill each other.

in just hours. cool.

The treaty basically outlaws nukes in space, it doesn't outlaws conventional weapons or putting thrusters on a big rock and targeting a city.
