On Wednesday, the Artemis II took off for the moon. I watched the launch with Ian.
Here’s a replay from NASA’s livestream:
Later we called my dad to talk about his memory of watching previous moon landings. He explained that during the first moon walk, he went outside and took a picture of the moon. Ian immediately wanted to know if he would send us that photo. We’ll try to track it in my dad’s old album the next time we have a chance.
The next day NASA released this image of the earth even as the spaceship continues on its historic journey to the moon.
