## Resource

For the first time in over 50 years, humans are traveling to the moon — and Modem Futura hosts Sean and Andrew use the Artemis II mission as a lens to explore what deep space exploration really demands of us: scientifically, ethically, and deeply, stubbornly humanly. From broken space toilets to coronal mass ejections, this is a conversation about wonder, risk, and what it means to push the edges of where humans have ever been.
