Summary
Hotel Mars for Wednesday, April 15, 2026 John and I welcomed Phil Swan and Joe Pistritto to discuss the Artemis II launch, all of the remaining Artemis program launches and needed tech to reach goals on time. We talked about SLS, the landers from SpaceX and Blue Origin, time lines, human spaceflight safety, Orion, the heat shield issues and more. Joe talked about lunar mass drivers and potential lunar data centers down the road. This was a very informative and hard hitting Hotel Mars Artemis and related discussion. By the way, our two guests offered up interesting comparisons with Apollo and Artemis.
