translunar: Folgen

The last human left the lunar surface in December of 1972. Ever since then, we have not set foot on our little companion, even though the path had been built.  Now, over fifty years later, we're going back. NASA is set to launch Artemis II. A mission, which will circle the moon with astronauts on board. For the longest time, human beings haven't left the lower Earth orbit.  With all this valid excitement, there also are some very valid questions: why are we going to the moon, when we've already been there? Why not Mars? How are we going back? What comes next? And will we go there to eventually truly stay? Paul answers these questions for you and will give you lunar fever!
