Saturn V was built by NASA for Apollo and the last Apollo mission went up about 50 years ago.

So I definitely am not sure that I would want to put myself on a rocket that's 50 years old.

They have changed some of the things as well.

So the SLS or

or the Space Launch System, it's got two rocket boosters which are strapped alongside it, whereas Saturn V, for example, only has kind of the one big booster.

I love when people are paying attention.

That's a great question.

We've done the maths on this, and we think that you would probably have to go much faster than we're capable of, especially if you've got humans aboard.

Now, interestingly here, it's actually, because the sun is in the middle, you would have to kind of go round the sun, or if you could manage to go straight through it, maybe.

But even if you could do all of those things...

The Earth is travelling about 107,000 kilometres per hour around the Sun, which is much faster than the spacecrafts that we're using.

So I think you'd be better off just getting a lift on Earth and waiting the six months.

Is there an obvious answer to this?

This is a really good question.

And it's a question that I've been getting a lot as well.

Like, we did it once.

Why are we doing it again?

I think that we're doing it again now because we're kind of in a second space race.

So...

China said that it wants to put an astronaut on the moon by 2030.
