       This appeared in a local newspaper:“The 90-year-old ‘Apollo 9’ pioneer Rusty Schweickart commented on the lack of global ‘Artemis’ euphoria with the words: ‘We all remember Columbus, but who can remember who came 50 years later?’ That is one reason for the muted enthusiasm. The other is likely to be that the lunar programme is also fuelled by the unsympathetic egotism of Silicon Valley tech billionaires (and a self-obsessed US president).” (Cellesche Zeitung, 13 April 2026)💯#artemis2 #moon
