@digital_carver NASA's Artemis livestream, earlier today.

This was just a few minutes after the capsule performed its first return burn while in a communications blackout on the dark side of the moon.

When it came back into contact with Earth, this is what we saw.

@LouisIngenthron
Damn cool indeed!

@digital_carver @LouisIngenthron

Nice. Looks like something from 2001: A Space Odyssey, but it's real!

Twenty+ years late, but were back.

@LouisIngenthron I've lost so many brave Kerbals attempting the reentry Artemis is about to try ...

@alltherum That's okay. That's what they're there for!

@LouisIngenthron @alltherum I've learned not to get attached to my Kerbals. But I try to keep the ones with the "badass" flag safe.

@ThinkingSapien @alltherum You deny your badass Kerbals an opportunity to die while hurtling through space?

You monster.
