Artemis Launch
T minus 20min
itยดs on hold for some reason, I presume, maybe normal, final checks.
Itยดs counting down again
go for launch!!
the cutting edge tech insanity of mankind
they reach about 27.000 km/hr in orbit, but need to speed up for the moon
crasy crasy
no, needs to get up from the atmosphere, but then sideways speed to reach orbit.
..like the moon, it goes around the Earth in orbit
orbital mechanics, look it up
it goes first two circles around the Earth in orbit
then they do the lunar injection burn, speed up so it will go further out and meet the moon
