God speed, Artemis II

I fell asleep! To be fair, it was scheduled for around 23:30 BST on a school night and I was dog tired. My eyelids won the battle. I managed to watch the lift-off replays this morning, however.

I missed the stop-clock event and slept through an issue with the toilet??

So, I didn’t miss too much, and can observe the rest of mission live via Youtube or NASA’s live feeds.

Still, I’m a little disappointed that I did not manage to keep it together long enough to witness this one as it happened. What a sight, good pitch, good roll! 4 gs of thrust, wow! Just wow.

God speed, Artemis II. And, God speed, Orion.
