Godspeed Artemis
Michael O'Casey
Michael O'Casey's View from the Riverbank
An event was scheduled at Cape Kennedy, Florida, 8:30 a.m., Monday, August 29, 2022, that resembles television news reruns of the late 1960s for those of us who remember the thunderous liftoffs of the early Apollo missions which paved the way for the first Moon mission on July 16, 1969. A huge Artemis rocket was set to lift off and propel an Orion space capsule into orbit around the moon during a 42 day mission. If successful, it will be a vital step in the attempt to get man to Mars and beyond.
