1 00:00:00,333 --> 00:00:03,633 Artemis is our return to the Moon after 50 years. 2 00:00:03,866 --> 00:00:05,900 The emphasis of Artemis is going to be, 3 00:00:05,900 --> 00:00:06,966 first of all, science. 4 00:00:07,066 --> 00:00:09,133 But second of all, learning to 5 00:00:09,133 --> 00:00:11,000 sustain a presence on another world, 6 00:00:11,166 --> 00:00:13,333 first on the Moon, but we're hoping that 7 00:00:13,333 --> 00:00:16,033 that's a steppingstone to Mars and other 8 00:00:16,033 --> 00:00:18,333 destinations in the solar system eventually. 9 00:00:26,633 --> 00:00:28,600 Artemis II will be a flyby mission. 10 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,066 It's not going to land. 11 00:00:30,066 --> 00:00:32,466 We're testing all of the technology 12 00:00:32,466 --> 00:00:34,866 that we've created for flying to the Moon 13 00:00:34,866 --> 00:00:36,200 since Apollo. 14 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,766 They will be flying by the Moon at an altitude 15 00:00:38,766 --> 00:00:41,100 that's much higher than Apollo's orbits, 16 00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:43,966 and so they will see the entire disk of the Moon, 17 00:00:43,966 --> 00:00:47,400 including areas that are closer to both the north and 18 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,900 south pole, that astronauts from Apollo never saw. 19 00:00:51,233 --> 00:00:53,733 During Apollo 8, on their fourth orbit, 20 00:00:53,733 --> 00:00:56,866 they finally turned their spacecraft around so that 21 00:00:56,866 --> 00:00:58,800 they could see in the direction of the Earth. 22 00:00:59,233 --> 00:01:01,800 I think it surprised all of them how 23 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,733 beautiful and how human it was to see 24 00:01:04,733 --> 00:01:06,366 the entire planet Earth 25 00:01:06,366 --> 00:01:09,166 from behind the horizon of another celestial body. 26 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,466 Artemis is going to have that opportunity once again. 27 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,600 I anticipate that the astronauts will have 28 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,233 the same feeling that the Apollo 8 astronauts did, 29 00:01:19,233 --> 00:01:21,366 and I think it will have a similar effect 30 00:01:21,366 --> 00:01:23,000 on a new generation of people 31 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,600 who are watching this mission unfold.
