YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

For the first time in more than 50 years, the United States is sending astronauts back toward the moon. NASA launched Artemis II from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, sending a crew of four astronauts on a 10-day voyage. If all goes as planned, they will travel farther into space than any humans before them. Miles O’Brien was there for the launch and joined Amna Nawaz to discuss the mission.
