Didn’t they cut the whole project recently…?

The president proposed cutting Artemis after Artemis III. Congress hasn’t yet agreed, so there’s a lot more to go and it wouldn’t affect the Artemis II launch.

So, get one moon landing in with a project specifically designed to use a moon landing as a practice run for a mars landing with the same platform, because the platform is really expensive for a moon landing.

Jesus Christ, the stupidity. There's plenty wrong with Artemis, but it's not that part.
