Not exactly a Saturn V is it?

It's about damn time. I'm amazed at how things have changed in the years since the Shuttle stopped flying. The suits actually look comfortable. The capsule used to be wall-to-wall switches. Now, three monitors. Crew sits comfortably. Even Mission Control has a different look.

Artemis, the next moon launch, is going to use the Space Launch System which will be more powerful than the Saturn V and will look a lot more like the traditional Apollo capsule setup some of us were used to seeing. Very excited to see that one launch.
