So far, it’s looking like the rocket and spaceship needed for a lunar landing are getting there for #NASA. The biggest remaining piece of the architecture is the Human Landing System. #HLS #SpaceX #BlueOrigin #Artemis

RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/116349209451650810 #Orion was maneuvered into an orientation such that the urine tank and vent lines received the maximum amount of sunshine ☀️ to un-freeze the #urine.
