Many of us will never, ever forget Artemis II, the incredible power of the launch, the moon joy, the flying around the moon for seven hours, the interaction for the first time ever, actually, the interaction between the astronauts and the science team directly in mission control.

That was incredible.

And just hearing the joy of discovery in the astronauts' voices as they went around the moon and observed things for real that they'd been training for for years.

From the pages of Jules Verne to a modern day mission to the moon, a new chapter of the exploration of our celestial neighbor is complete.

Integrity's astronauts, back on Earth.

The space age started a century ago with Robert Goddard.

Who would have even imagined?

We launched a rocket every 28 hours last year.

We the world.

And that's because of Robert Goddard.
