Sorry if I'm missing sarcasm, but this has been a big deal for several years. Planning started under Obama!
Here's my guess. The main mission structure and Time line were announced and detailed under Trump admin in like 2017. But since he dominates and generates near constant stupid headlines, it probably filtered away in a matter of hours. Same with each time a launch has occurred I suppose. Another aspect is that space x is heavily involved, so left leaning circles probably aren't super excited as they would be?
Edit: I just saw who Peter whatever was. I think he is a disingenuous person and maybe this post is also? Or you're in a bubble that you really need to get out of
I've been exposed to the news cycle my entire life and I don't know how I missed the NASA Artemis project. I'm not sure why you'd think Peter is disingenuous. He's just a guy that loves to make documentary films.
Sorry for being suspicious.
That guy is like Joe Rogan. Acts like he's just asking questions or observing, but is bias in most content and whose perspective is shared (tactfully sprinkling neutral pieces in between).
From how once beautiful cities are allowing drugs and homelessness to run rampant (this trump talking point was the video that first made him famous), to how border crossing is terrible and human trafficking is a bane on our society due to inaction, to how welfare is ruining rural America, and a video disparaging the use of masks during covid. New York Post and Daily Mail regularly do articles based on his content.
You're not getting insight into other places or people like he implies. You're getting what he thinks you should see. He's another Joe Rogan.
Interesting. I was not aware that Peter is as you say he is. I can see it now. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will no longer be watching his videos.
