And we’re going back,” he said, translated from French.“And yes, my emotions don’t matter, but it pains me, after everything I’ve done for 10 years, my two missions, the thousands of hours of extra work to share them and explain science and technology, to have to do this tweet today,” he continued.“It also worries me enormously to see how some people have fun blurring the truth and others are having fun.

UPDATE, SATURDAY, SEPT. 3: The Artemis 1 unmanned space launch, the first step in a program to return mankind to the moon, was called off once again this morning.

NASA had to make a difficult decision this morning (August 29) and cancel the planned launch for Artemis I, the first unmanned mission to the moon and back to Earth.

NASA has been forced to abort a mission to the Moon due to last minute technical problems.The Artemis I mission should have seen NASA's new £41.35billion mega-rocket take off from the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida this morning (August 29). However, there were issues during the fuelling stage.

NASA has postponed the launch of its Artemis 1 Moon rocket mission, which was due to take off on Bank Holiday Monday (August 29). Issues occurred with one of the engines, the space agency explained.

NASA’s first mission as part of humanity’s return to the Moon is set to take a range of odd and unusual passengers up into space – including Lego people and Shaun the Sheep.The mission, which will last 42 days and cover a distance of 1.3 million miles, is the first in a line of missions designed to help humanity set up a presence on the moon.Artemis I’s job is to test the Orion system in space including its reentry capability into Earth’s atmosphere.READ MORE: Dad who murdered teen who refused to sleep with him at boozy Christmas party jailedOn the historic flight which will take off from Kennedy Space Centre in Florida will be a series of items with both research-based and symbolic reasons for being onboard.It will travel beyond the moon, carrying with it a number of mementoes in keeping with tradition from NASA missions of the past.Knick knacks and important artefacts will be on board. One of these is is a metal bolt that was part of the Apollo 11 mission.

NASA is launching a bizarre experiment that will see it send two plastic dummies to the Moon to test the impact of space radiation on women astronauts.The mannequins, Helga and Zohar, will travel around the Moon for around six weeks on the Artemis I shuttle.They will be used to test the effects of space radiation on female adult humans ahead of a mission to send women to the Moon. While the mission is designed to eventually enable women to travel to the Moon in 2025, it will also mean that mannequins reach our nearest neighbour before an actual woman does—which may not be such a victory for feminism.Designed to mimic female bodies, Helga and Zohar will be covered in around 10,000 special sensors .

Pearl Jam‘s Eddie Vedder has teamed up with NASA to interview the crew aboard the International Space Station.The ISS is currently orbiting more than 250 miles above Earth, and onboard are NASA astronauts Kayla Barron, Raja Chari, Thomas Marshburn, and Mark Vande Hei, as well as ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Matthias Maurer.Speaking to Vedder yesterday (April 22) in celebration of Earth Day, they shared their thoughts on having a front-row seat to the global effects of climate change; reflected on the stewardship of Earth; and space’s ability to unite everyone.The interview is the second time the frontman has collaborated with NASA. Last month, Vedder released his ‘Invincible’ music video inspired by NASA’s Artemis I Moon mission. The song is taken from the musician’s recent solo album ‘Earthling’.You can check out Vedder’s chat with the crew of the ISS below:Pearl Jam recently confirmed they’ve started working on a new album.Stone Gossard has said the grunge legends have started sessions on the follow-up to 2020’s ‘Gigaton’ and some tracks have already been recorded.“We’ve recorded some songs.

NASA is sending a plush Snoopy doll to the Moon in a custom spacesuit next year in order to test zero-gravity.The iconic cartoon dog will be put on NASA's new Orion spacecraft for a test flight as part of the Artemis I mission, which aims to put people on the Moon for the first time since 1972.As the Orion capsule will be unmanned, NASA says that 'Astronaut Snoopy' is meant to be a visual indicator of when the spacecraft leaves Earth's atmosphere and enters zero-gravity.
