Leroy Chow

Despite all of the public posturing you hear from the regime and false reporting, talks are continuing and going well.

What is said publicly is, of course, much different than what's being communicated to us privately.

So Artemis 2 is part of the Artemis program, which aims to return Americans actually on the moon for the first time in 50 years.

Now, this mission will not go to the moon, but it will go around the moon.

It's sort of a test flight to get things ready to, you know, return to the moon.

So I interviewed a former NASA astronaut, Leroy Chow, who flew four space missions and commanded the International Space Station.

And he talks about why this is such an important moment.

If the first 24 hours in space go well, the astronauts will head towards the moon and set several historic firsts.

So not quite.

According to Chao, Artemis 3 is going to test lunar landing modules created by Blue Origin and SpaceX, and maybe both if they are both created in time.

And Artemis 4 and 5 will be landing on the moon if all goes well.

And beyond the scheduled Artemis missions, the next plan is to actually create a moon base.

So I asked Chow this exact question because I found it interesting that the majority of Americans alive today were not alive the last time humans were on the moon.

So he said that the space race was a big factor in getting us there so quickly and that we haven't really had that in a while.

But now with China planning to send astronauts to the moon by 2030, I think the race is back on.

So this is all very exciting.

And you can look forward to seeing the space launch this Wednesday at 624 Eastern.

And we will be streaming it on The Daily Wire.
