I can't emphasize that enough.

You know, President Trump with his national space policy, he created the Artemis program during his first term.

And he said, we're not just going back to the moon to plant the flag and pick up rocks.

He wants an enduring presence.

He wants America to return to the moon and have the ability to stay.

So this might be Artemis 2 coming up, but our children someday are going to watch Artemis 100.

I mean, this mission sets up a series of launches to and from the moon, the construction of a lunar base, so we can realize the scientific and economic value of being on the lunar surface.

So this is a major commitment by the president.

It's very exciting.

It's such a great question.

So in part, we are fulfilling a promise to the American people.

For 35 years, presidents have called for a return to the moon.

We've spent over $100 billion to do it.

It wasn't until President Trump in his first term where he really committed us on that path by creating the Artemis program.

Again, in his second term, recommitting us and establishing the lunar base.

So we're delivering on a promise here.

It's a promise to the American people and the pioneers from the 1960s who built the foundation that we stand upon today.

Second, we don't know what we're going to find out there that could change things here on Earth.

On the lunar surface, you could be mining helium-3, which has the potential to change

change things in energy.
