I think after Artemis 3 they are supposed to have regular annual trips or something happening to the moon. Their window opens on April first but it could be later if they have issues. Here are some NASA livestream links

This is a fraction of the cost of healthcare and is absolutely not the reason universal healthcare in the US isn’t happening.
Every stupid thing is a fraction of the cost of health care, and we spend money on a LOT of stupid things. How about we stop doing all those stupid things, and use the money on health care instead?
Learning more about the universe is one of the least stupid things we can do. The estimates for universal healthcare in the US range from $200 to $500 billion a year. Sure, we could reduce our research goals wherever (keeping in mind those may have an impact on healthcare, such as radiation and photography) or we could…not attack another country for no pressing reason (about $200 billion in a few weeks). But sure, let’s focus on the $25 billion a year spent on NASA. That will fix things.
There are so many different fields of research that have led to advances in just medicine, that you would be hard pressed to find one that hasn’t benefited it. Optics, electricity, refrigeration, metallurgy, chemistry, nuclear science, on and on. How many years do you think germ theory would have been delayed if Galileo hadn’t advanced optics to the point where telescopes could show details on planets?
I’m all for science and space exploration, but things have gotten really bad for American citizens while Sociopathic Oligarchs all compete with each other in their little space competition that isn’t exploring anything, it’s just a dick measuring contest.
And their objectives are going to destroy the sky for every future human who wants to just lay in the grass, and look up at the sky as they hold hands with someone they love. But Elon Musk wants to take that away because he needs more money.
