Subject: America Is Approaching Interplanetary Capability, Every Student Should Know

BOE,

Director and Assistant,

In 1968 and 1968 nine and ten year old me learned about the stages and mission roles of the components of Apollo. I have summarized what I have gleaned from the wikipedia pages of Apollo and the SLS Artemis system below.  Now is the time for every student in every grade to join this voyage.

20221116  About 4 AM EST.
I was up in the wee hours this morning and watched the launce of Artemis 1 the first and uncrewed Space Launch System with Orion Capsule. 

Perhaps this link will continue to have replay of the launch as it does now:

Motivated by my ten year old's self's memories of Apollo technology, for FaceBook I wrote up this summary comparing and contrasting Apollo Moon going rockets to Artemis 1.  I hope younger minds might find any errors and of course add more details.
