Greetings, Recherché righteous ones!

PREACH

hey addie! welcome!

Hi Readie! Hey Addie!!

Happy Springy!

Hola!

Hey Alan, and hello Bike R- hola!!!!

april showers y'all! here in Princeton anyway!

Welcome to the BALLROOM portion of our program today! 💃

...and NASA gonna make that final burn that will put a crew (including the first woman) on their way to the moon!

Hi Alan, Bike R, and of course READIE

YASSS, kings & queens!!

& gender neutral monarchs!

Alan, when will they get to the moon? It's the pink moon by the way....

@addie! absolutely!

Readie: in about 4 days, if the burn out of earth orbit goes ok today (sent you an email)

thanks for the update, Alan!

ok, I missed it, Alan. Will check it out after the show!!

Alan, this is a NASA project, right?

Readie: Yes.

nice.

Readie: NASA has a lot riding on this mission. New technologies, and a diversified crew. Kinda like Star Trek Gene Roddenberry's vision of Inclusiveness...

i am a little embarrassed to admit i didn't even know Artemis was happening till after the launch already occurred and people were talking about it on threads.

I remember when Star Trek TOS came on TV - it was way ahead of its time

but i'm glad it's going well so far!

talk about diversity!

This is the first moon mission since Apollo?

Yes

Apollo 17 was 1972. just checked.

Is it really a moon mission, if we're not actually landing on it?

Bike: Good point. Landing much more risky

(Free Return trajectory) here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-return_trajectory

Fascinating, captain!

so they don't need any fuel to get back, they just swing arounf the moon and whip right back here?

*around*

Readie: Exactly, playin' it safe.

Apollo 8 was first to go to moon, had to depend on that one engine firing to get home.

Yikes

first time that 8 came around the moon, they took this picture, sort of jump started the Environmental movement.. here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthrise#Details

Every time I look at that fragile earth photo I think "Drill Baby Drill" is that REALLY a good idea???????????

classic photo. I hope they take pics this time around

Readie: Hopefully it will be called "Earthrise II"

we need leaders to raise the level of discourse regarding earth

I know, Alan! I like it

Hopefully Earthrise II will revitalize that movement..

one can hope! we need the leadership & political will to elevate the cause...

Hey, Readie! Welcome to my world. Been freezing rain here for hours. Everything coated in ice. But the music and company are hot! 😂😂

Hey Jeffry - thanks for dropping by! glad you are enjoying! At least we have above freezing temps so no frost on the daffodils....that heavens!

*thank* boy I can't type for beans today!

nice gentle math rock

hiya DTO! glad you like this! Lately I've been getting into math rock...

and microtonal too

hits a different part of my brain

Hi Readie! Afternoon all!

Hiya Parrscream! good to see ya!

Good to hear and see you Readie! I'm back at my warm weather work station so now I can hang in the PRB chat for parts of the day again! :-)

awesome, Parrscream! welcome back!!!

Blackwater! :)

Perfect ending for the show, Readie! Happy Easter and Happy Passover, all.

Thanks, Jeffry! Happy Eater and Passover all!

Readie: Thanks for the show! Happy Easter! And remember “The Earth is the cradle of Civilization, but one cannot remain in the cradle Forever” 🌎 & ☮️ & bcnu!

🥰🥰 Thanks for being here, everyone!
